Easiest Way to Load Debian Linux on a Microzed XC7Z010

I need a Linux OS on my Microzed that has "apt-get", not "rpm" or "yum" (I know there are equivalents). What is the easiest way to find, and load a prebuilt Debian OS onto my MicroZed Zynq XC7Z010?

Thank you,

Alex

Hi,
Thank you, I was able to get Xillinux running on my board. I now want to output SPI communication to my ADC chip (AD7771BCPZ) on a AD777xFMCZ eval board. I know I probably should use the PMOD port. But I don't see anything like /dev/pmod or anything like that listed. I've looked at some tutorials, but I havent found anything helpful. How do I configure the PMOD to write and receive SPI messages?

Thank you,
Alex

Hi Alex,
Take a look at tutorial 06 and 07 here http://zedboard.org/support/design/1519/10
In these tutorials it shows how to hook up SPI Pmods to the PMOD ports on MicroZed using Vivado.

Thank you! Follow up question: What's the highest sampling rate the XC7010 could achieve? I'm trying to sample from an ADC chip at a rate of around 200k - 400k samples per second. Is that possible not using the FPGA?

Thanks,
