The Xillybus Forum

Hi, sir

We're preparing for porting the Xilinux at the first time. According to the document "Getting started with Xillinux for Zynq-7000 EPP v1.3", it describes the min. size of SD card is 2GB with Xilinux as shown below. Just to confirm with you: is it that case ?

A reliable SD card (for Zedboard) or MicroSD (for MicroZed / Zybo) with 2GB or
more, preferably Sandisk. The card that (possibly) came with the board is not
recommended, as problems have been reported using it with Xillinux.

Hello,

Yes, what the doc says is true: 2GB is enough for Xillinux-1.3. However that leaves you with very little free space, so it's not a good idea if you want to do something useful with the system.

Regards,
Eli
