Install the dependencies for pynq: cd ~/Documents/PYNQ-2.4/sdbuild/script However, I still get into the errors, and I think its because I’m using WSL2. cd ~/Documents/PYNQ-2.4īefore that, I was following the tutorial of official website to build pynq sd card for other board, and I get into a lot of error and trouble, then here comes to this tutorial in the forum of building the image for custom board from prebuilt image. Otherwise, the error would occur during the runtimen. So, we need to initialize it as a local git repository. Since line 57 in ~/PYNQ-2.4/sdbuild/Makefile will use git command and PYNQ-2.4 is extracted from a tar file, currently it is not a git repository.

The following commands are to download the pynq-2.4 repository and the prebuild image Pynq-Z1 v2.4 from github and extract it. I’m using an older release of PYNQ to build the image, because I don’t want to download other version of Xilinx software (SDx file is really big and it takes a lot of time to install it). Source /tools/Xilinx/Vivado/2018.3/settings64.sh Source /tools/Xilinx/SDx/2018.3/settings64.sh The petalinux and SDx are installed in the following path of my WSL: /tools/Xilinx/Īfter you have installed petalinux and SDx, you need to source it: source /tools/Xilinx/SDK/2018.3/settings64.sh I’m using WSL2 (Ubuntu 16.04.7 LTS) as the environment, petalinux-2018.3 and SDx-2018.3 from Xilinx to build the image.

To download those mentioned files, checkout the download links below.

So, I would like to write down this for others as a reference for newbie.

While following the provided tutorial from the official website of pynq, I have met a lot of errors and failed to build pynq image for zedboard.
