I followed the NOEL-ARTYA7-EX Quick Start Guide (link) and met a problem at step 3.6 (Programming the bitstream).
The toolchains I'm using:
Ubuntu 20.04 (standalone, not WSL version or in a virtual box)
Digilent Arty A7 FPGA Development Board (A7-100T version)
Xilinx Vivado 2019.1 to program the FPGA
GRMON 3.2.18 64-bit eval version
The bitstream was found in the Link. There is NOEL-ARTYA7 FPGA configuration files at the bottom. Since there's no EX1 processor, I chose the MC64-SC and downloaded the bitstreams to the target board. Then the HARDWARE MANAGER in vivado should be closed.
Now the target board should have the NOEL-ARTY SOC (correct me pls if I'm wrong.). I continue to debug the target board with the GRMON. I chosed the uart debug link. And the port should be ttyUSB1 bucause all other ports (ttyS0-9) give me Input or Output error. But it has no access to the target board.
I also tried the digilent debug link, which needs the specific digilent adept runtime drive. But it gave me the following errors. Does this debug link method need a specific digilent HS1/HS2/HS3/SMT2/SMT3 cables? I used just a normal type A to type B cable XDDDD.
What should I do to go further with this GRMON debug tool? Or is the bitstream actually not the right one?
