No Bitstream File in Petalinux Build

petalinux-build -c image-avnet-minimal should generate basic elements like system.bit. Did you try that?

Thank you. I did try it and it says command not found. It doesn't recognize "image-avnet-minimal" while it recognizes "image-avnet-full"!!!

I finally installed Linux on my machine. I am following your post "https://www.hackster.io/bartosz-rycko/minized-2020-1-getting-started-pynq-b39925 ". When I run ./make_minized.sh, it gives me the following error:

me@my_machine:~/Avnet20201/petalinux/scripts$ ./make_minized.sh

Will build the hardware platform now.

I followed exactly what they say in UG1144 and your post. I am giving up on Avnet!

Thank you

Hello Iman,

I am sorry you are having trouble building the 2020.1 MiniZed BSP.  Thank you for including the log of the error message.

In addition to building the PetaLinux OS image, the make_minized.sh build script will first check to see if the required underlying Zynq hw platform for the MiniZed exists.  This needs to be done before the OS image build can begin, and if it doesn't exist the script will call the Vivado tools to build it.  That is what is happening here.  Vivado is trying to build the hw platform and has failed. This error message indicates something has gone with the Vivado build.  This Xilinx forum article references an older version of the Vivado tools, but might still be relevant.  It indicates the issue might be with a environment variable for TCLLIBPATH that conflicts with Vivado:

Could this be your issue?  Do you have this TCLLIBPATH environment variable set?

Hmm, If Avnet script doesn't work you could use clean Minized 2020.1 bsp generated by Avnet's script, and use that for building system and PYNQ for Minized. BSP should be at the bottom of hackster project.

Also, you could download PYNQ image from Xilinx github and run setup_host.sh script, it should download some libraries for Vivado, and try to re-run one more time make_minized.sh.

By the way I was using Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS for all these projects and used setup guide for Vivado/Petalinux and ran all necessary commands.

Thank you Tom and Bartosz. I noticed I had removed some packages during my Vivado installation due to lack of enough space. I allotted more memory to my dual boot Ubuntu and re-installed everything and ran the Avnet scripts today. It worked perfect and generated the BSP files. Now, it is time to build my own hardware and Linux application.
