Hello,

We are supporting the standard flow of programming the FPGA and HPS either through our tools or through Flash devices.

For SOC devices, the popular approach is to but the system image in an SDcard, uboot will configure the FPGA and load the linux to boot it on HPS. for more information, you can refer to this link:

Thanks
