Hi Brian,

It seems like there is a lot of confusion. Maybe it would be helpful for you to start a new thread that clearly states your question(s) and we can try again?

However, after programming an SD Card with this image, as far as I can tell, my board doesn't boot. I get no output from the serial port so I don't have any way of debugging.

Please can you help with any advice how to proceed to diagnose what is going wrong?

Many thanks

According to this quote aka the first comment in this ticket.
Could you read "no output from the serial port" <-----

Such behavior is 100% aligned with 2025.01 2025.04 U-Boot Altera github repository on C5 devices.
I don't see why all stuff comments are so confused on this same issue.

And I had already explained the issue and the possible solutions accordingly, which might not fix as inherent issue of this early year that Das U-Boot upstream had changed the SPL settings entirely.

I no expert on Uboot but undergo minor study on such.

So if there are system Engineer from Altera should know very well.
