Problem with u-boot (Lab 1.2 Speedway-course)

Former Member

Hi,

i am trying the Implementing Linux on Zynq Speedway course too, but have many Problems even because I have no experience with Linux.

First I was not able to download the u-boot-xlnx folder with the command
"$ git clone git://git.xilinx.com/u-boot-xlnx.git" but I got the following error:
-----------------------------------------------------
[training@localhost ~]$ git clone git://git.xilinx.com/u-boot-xlnx.git
Initialized empty Git repository in /home/training/u-boot-xlnx/.git/
git.xilinx.com[0: 149.199.60.191]: errno=Connection refused
fatal: unable to connect a socket (Connection refused)
-----------------------------------------------------

I think this is because of my proxy-server and/or my Firewall, i have read a lot about this problem in many forums but was not able to fix it.
Because of that i downloaded the files manually from http://git.xilinx.com/ and copied them into a u-boot-xlnx folder in my personal directory (I hope that was not already wrong)

So if I try the command "$ git checkout -b xilinx-14.2-build1-trd  xilinx-14.2-build1-trd" I get the error:
"fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git"
------------------------------------------------------
and if I try the command "$ make zynq_zed_config" I get the error:
"make: *** No rule to make target `zynq_zed_config'.  Stop."
------------------------------------------------------
If i ignore that a few steps later I have the same Problems described here:
http://www.zedboard.org/content/unable-apply-32mb-ramdisk-patch-u-boot

Can anybody help me to fix this please?
Thank you
Tobi

    Hi Tobi,

    I ran into the exact same problem that you ran into and I was able to solve it through Matthew's github link related to ssh.

    First step is to check if ssh service is turned ON on your vmware session.

    Then you can create an RSA public-private key pair for yourself, using this help page: https://help.github.com/articles/generating-ssh-keys

    Create a github account on github webpage and add your public key into your SSH keys (settings page on your github account.

    After this, you should be able to test that ssh is working and you are authenticated on github to pull from git repos.

    Then your git clone of Xilinx u-boot should work. It worked for me after I followed those steps.

    cheers,
    Sundar
