Can anyone provide a simple, almost blank project?

quadzilla

My team could use some help.  Would someone be so kind as to provide a simple, nearly empty Vitis 2023 project for the MicroZed?  We're having some trouble getting started and the Avnet tutorials are out of date.  Trying to figure out why my projects don't execute.

    Avnet provides scripts to do just that.  Clone the following three repos under a common directory:

    https://github.com/Avnet/bdf.git

    https://github.com/Avnet/hdl.git

    https://github.com/Avnet/petalinux.git

    After you have cloned all three repos, go into hdl and petalinux directories and check out the 2023.1 branch:

    git clone 2023.1

    From there, read the README.MD in the hdl directory.  That will give instructions on how to use the TCL file to create your project.

    Normally, you would go into the petalinux/scripts directory and run the make_mz7010_som_base.sh to create the Vivado project, petalinux project and build everything.  Unfortunately, Avnet has a bug n their scripts and they think they want Vivado 2022.2 even though you're on the 2023.1 branch.

    Oops, it should be git checkout 2023.1...NOT CLONE!

    Many thanks.  Unless I'm doing something stupid, README.MD doesn't seem to have any instructions for using the TCL file though. This was even after doing "git checkout 2023.1" though.  Any idea what might be going wrong?

    Large Changes are here!
    This 2020.2 Branch is mostly stable. Please use the 2020.2 tags!.
    Unstable projects do not have tags at this time. BASE projects are stable!

    ===========================

    Avnet HDL libraries, project build scripts, and example software source code used in Avnet Reference Designs/Tutorials.

    Where can I find documentation?
    -------------------------------

    This repository is intended to provide publicly accessible, revision controlled source code for Avnet Reference Designs/Tutorials.

    The best way to find what you are looking for would be to start with the documentation for the Reference Design/Tutorial you are interested in. If you cannot find a document that covers the piece of code you are interested in, then it is likely that code is no longer supported.

    For a list of Reference Designs/Tutorials for your Avnet board, please visit the corresponding product page for your board on our community site and then click on the **Support Files & Downloads** OR **Reference Design/Tutorials** link.

    Also, there is a much more detailed Application Note (more details than are needed to get started) which explains our methodology and how the Vivado build automation plus Avnet build scripting infrastructure can be useful for your own in house development team.

    Use the script in the Petalinux scripts directory.  It will call into the hdl directroy and create the Vivado project, export it and then build a Petalinux image.

    You'll have to hand-edit a couple of scripts where it has the expected version as 2022.2.  Avnet got a little sloppy with the 2023.1 branch.
