Restoring U-Boot on SPI NOR flash[edit | edit source]
This article describes how to restore U-Boot on SPI NOR flash in case it gets corrupted or it is deleted accidentally.
The example refers to BoraXEVB carrier board but the procedure is the same for BoraEVB board as well. The procedure was tested with the binaries released with BXELK 2.0.0. As such, it is valid for BELK 4.x as well.
At the end of the procedure, the default partitioning of the NOR flash will be restored. It is depicted in the following image.
Instructions[edit | edit source]
First of all, create a bootable microSD card as described here.
Then, boot the board with the microSD card and stop automatic boot process of U-Boot in order to access the console.

Select the SPI NOR flash as boot device, remove the microSD card, and reset the board. The board should boot off the NOR flash as shown in the following image.

Notes about BELK 3.x.x/BXELK 1.x.x and older[edit | edit source]
Until BELK 3.x.x/BXELK 1.x.x, a little bit different partitioning scheme was used. It is illustrated in the following picture.
This is due to the fact that those kits made use of the FSBL. Consquently, the header required by the Zynq'a bootrom and the FSBL binary image were stored at the bottom of the NOR flash. BELK 4.x.x and BXELK 2.x.x and newer are based on U-Boot SPL, instead. The U-Boot SPL binary image includes the header as well. This leads to a different partitioning.
