    Hi @K606

    We internally evaluated your issue with the https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/programmable/articles/000098223.html and concluded they are not related (this is more related with the use of the JTAG chain, that does not prevents the HPS from booting). Your u-boot should be going through...

    So, please, program your board using the .sof and this would give you and indication of why the "rbf" load is hanging.

    Sorry for the delay in checking this out.

Hi K606 and BoonBeng,

We have determined that the issue Esteban referred to is not related.

Please try programming the HPS first with a .sof that includes the JOP IP and check if that works. If not, please review the programmer error messages—there may be missing clocks during configuration.

If the .sof works, then it's worth checking which U-Boot version you are using. Recent branches print out debug error messages during configuration failures, which might help identify the problem.

Thanks,

Sue
