 ====== Deploying ======

-As soon as you are done with your development, you can deploy it. This means to load it together with a FPGA configuration onto a SD card. Alternatively, you can program it into the on-board QSPI flash device. We strongly recommend using the SD card and reserve the QSPI flash for using together with the [[firstexample:first_example_microzed_appdev|Application Development]].

-The application together with the configuration of the FPGA is loaded upon power-up from the SD card or the flash device. What must be done using this method?
+The application and configuration of the FPGA are loaded from the SD card or the flash device upon power-up. Make sure to specify a PL configuration, see 2. below.
 ===== Step by Step Instructions =====
   - Create a deep project and setup the project configuration as given in [[first_example_microzed|Hello World on the Avnet MicroZed Board]].
-  - Choose a configuration for the FPGA part to be included into the resulting image. \\ {{ chooseplfile.png?350 |}}. \\ Available configurations can be found under [[https://wiki.bu.ost.ch/infoportal/embedded_systems/zynq7000/microzed#configuration_files|Configuration Files]].
+  - Choose a configuration for the FPGA part to be included into the resulting image. \\ {{ chooseplfile.png?350 |}}. \\ Available configurations can be found under [[https://wiki.bu.ost.ch/infoportal/embedded_systems/zynq7000/microzed#configuration_files|Configuration Files]]. You can use relative or absolute paths.
   - When creating the run configuration, set the target configuration to //boot from flash memory// {{ runconfigurationmicrozedflash.png?400 |}}.
   - Running the configuration will create two flash files. Its location is given by the image file setting in the configuration. They carry the names //*.ExternalFlash.mcs// and //BOOT.bin//. Running the configuration will try to open a connection to the target if a programmer is chosen, such as //OpenOCD//. Make sure to remove the programmer, if you have no programmer present.

 ==== Using the SD Card ====
   - Copy the above generated file //BOOT.bin// onto a SD card. The card must be formatted with FAT32.
-  - Set the jumpers on your MicroZed board as follows \\ {{ sdboot.png?200 |}}. \\ This will boot the device from the QSPI flash.
+  - Set the jumpers on your MicroZed board as follows \\ {{ sdboot.png?200 |}}. \\ This will boot the device from the SD card.
-  - Cycle the power. The settings of the jumpers will be read only at power-on! Hence, make sure to cycle the supply power after changing the jumper settings. A soft reset (through the JTAG or by pressing the reset button on the board will reset the board but will not sample the boot mode pins connected to the jumpers.
