Super ContributorNo it just means you have to use the PFG instead of CPF to create the .pof. The CPF was/is for older devices.
New ContributorThanks for the info!
However that further reinforces that their instructions are incomplete for converting a file to be loaded into Flash on the Stratix 10 GX development board. The only build_hw.sh script I was able to find calls quartus_cpf to produce a .pof file first, before converting that into a .bin file. If quartus_cpf doesn't work for this device, then the script won't work either even after the syntax errors are fixed, or otherwise it is not the right script being referred to by their instructions.
Super ContributorI think maybe it was CPF in older versions of Quartus so that's why the old script is like that.
New ContributorFair enough, but back to the topic of this thread, the script that Intel points to (which I had to really dig to try and find since they don't say where it is) uses that utility. So if that utility won't work anyways for a Stratix 10 device, then Intel has multiple problems with their instructions for customers to load their own designs into the Stratix 10 GX development board Flash.
Do you by chance know how to get a user-produced .sof file converted into the correct format, so that it can be passed to the Board Update Portal to be loaded into Flash on the Stratix 10 GX development board?
