Boot Ultrazed From eMMC

I suspect something is broken in your u-boot settings and/or Image Packaging Configuration settings.  Can you attach your <project>/project-spec/meta-user/recipes-bsp/u-boot/files/platform-top.h file here?

Tom, I appreciate your very quick reply, thanks. The file contents is below:

After I found this post https://forums.xilinx.com/t5/Embedded-Linux/U-boot-How-to-set-the-default-mmc-device/m-p/777575#M20450  I could easily boot Ubuntu like this:

ZynqMP> load mmc 0 0x10000000 image.ub

18395704 bytes read in 1261 ms (13.9 MiB/s)

ZynqMP> bootm

## Loading kernel from FIT Image at 10000000 ...

   Using 'conf@system-top.dtb' configuration

...

However, the solution offered there is very ugly, so I simply run through platform-top.h and replaced all instances of "mmc 1 " with "mmc 0 " (but never touched "mmc 1:0" and it's booting now

I noticed the "mmc 1" looked incorrect in the u-boot snipped you posted.  This is likely an artifact of the last-built boot method from our BSP build script, and was incompatible with eMMC boot.  I am glad you got it working!

A small detail, this is definitely not an artifact, because I just built my system from scratch and clearly showed that rootfs is on mmcblk0p2, but platform-top.h shows mmc 1:

""sdboot=echo boot Petalinux; run uenvboot ; mmcinfo && fatload mmc 1 ${netstart} ${kernel_img} && bootm \0" \ "

I think BSP setings could have higher priority than user selected options.
