SD Card Boot

Hi,

I have an Agilex 5 Modular Development Board which I can boot with the supplied SD Card.

I have tried to update to the latest image at Index of /2025.04/gsrd/agilex5_mk_a5e065bb32aes1_gsrd/,

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

Malcolm

    Hi Tiwari,

    Many thanks for your answer. After programming the QSPI with the image you suggested, I was able to boot linux successfully ( I believe from the SD Card!).

    Please can you give a brief explanation as to why this was necessary? What was preventing linux from booting?

    Many thanks

    Hi Malcolm,


    I hope you have reprogrammed the new .jic image to QSPI before using the sd card image.

    This .jic image is given on the same link-https://releases.rocketboards.org/2025.04/gsrd/agilex5_mk_a5e065bb32aes1_gsrd/


    Please confirm.


    Regards
