Extracting hardware design of Zybo Petalinux Demo

[Nick Haman]

I'm a bit confused about how to get the PL design of the Petalinux demo.

On this page:

In order to modify and switch out the hardware platform for a baremetal demo, you should first open the Vivado project from the release. Extract the previously downloaded '*.xpr.zip' file. Exporting the Vivado project for Petalinux is the same as exporting it for Vitis, therefore the instructions are identical.

 

I don't see a reference to the .xpr file in that documentation.

 

I've also followed the instructions of executing the checkout.tcl script from the github repo on Vivado 2022.1, but it never opens a populated block design and gives this error:

[Project 1-202] Error writing the XML file 'D:/Dropbox/Google/WW2/zybo/hw/proj/hw.xpr'
[Common 17-69] Command failed: ERROR: [Project 1-202] Error writing the XML file 'D:/Dropbox/Google/WW2/zybo/hw/proj/hw.xpr'

 

 

Is there a way to get the .xpr file?

It looks like the checkout.tcl script was failing because of dropbox.  After disabling dropbox, I get the following error:

[Board 49-71] The board_part definition was not found for digilentinc.com:zybo-z7-10:part0:1.1. The project's board_part property was not set, but the project's part property was set to xc7z010clg400-1. Valid board_part values can be retrieved with the 'get_board_parts' Tcl command. Check if board.repoPaths parameter is set and the board_part is installed from the tcl app store.
 

 

Board files have been installed to data/boards/board_files in Vivado 2022.1 according to the instructions.

I think I was able to get it to extract by changing the part in project_info.tcl from 1.1 to 1.2
