Could you post the error message you get when you try to program the FPGA?

Hi there,
In linux the /sys/class/fpga/ directory does not exist and trying to program the FPGA with dd if=sockit_test.rpf of=/dev/fpga0 fails.
Also the MSEL switches are all '0'.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

No error message, just "13685+1 records in 13685+1 records out"
I see, you can write the .sof file, but the FPGA doesn't program. Did the /dev/fpga0 file exist before you tried to write to it? If not, then what you essentially did was to create a regular file. I think the issue is that you don't have the FPGA drivers loaded. Which branch of the kernel did you use?
Hi, any progress with this? Anything else I can do to help?
Sorry for not following up. But after installing and running the latest linux image from rocketboards I was able to do what I wanted.
Ah, I thought as much. Good to hear that you got it working.
