morning everyone!
09:24
Sasha_C
Hello there Bertl :)
09:29
Bertl
hey, do you have a ZedBoard available?
09:30
Sasha_C
Unfortunately, I don't
09:30
Sasha_C
Why do you ask?
09:30
Bertl
just checking who is able to test code/early releases
09:37
Sasha_C
What other hardware would be required for testing code/early releases?
09:38
Bertl
for the prototype, the zedboard and the sensor frontend should suffice
09:39
Bertl
the zedboard is probably enough if the sensor is emulated
09:39
Sasha_C
the sensor would be emulated from another computer then?
09:40
Bertl
well, depends, in the simplest case, it is emulated by code running in the FPGA/PL
09:43
Sasha_C
ok then. I'll have to consider whether I can get one (I just purchased a medium format film camera, so I have to weigh up where I spend my money for the next couple of months...)
09:49
Bertl
fair enough ... if you decide to get one, please let me know
09:50
Sasha_C
Will definitely do so
09:51
Sasha_C
Just confirming that this is what you are referring to (ZedBoard Zynqâ„¢-7000 Development Board (Zedboard Zynq): http://www.blackboxconsulting.com.au/product-details/ZedBoard-Zynq-xilinx.html
09:54
Bertl
yep, that's it
09:54
Sasha_C
cool
10:12
Bertl
IMHO it's a fair price for what that board can do
10:13
Sasha_C
I agree, but I'm also trying to figure out what else I might be able to use the board for (to justify the purchase).
10:35
Bertl
yes, sure, it is a development board so it might not be that useable for anything else

wb se6astian!
18:21
se6astian
Thanks, I dont have much time this evening but already started extending the wiki
18:22
se6astian
now: dhcp server setup currently
18:32
Bertl
btw, the hardcoded MAC is from my bootloader :)
18:34
Bertl
I've put the configureable MAC per zedboard on my todo list, but for now it is more an advantage than a disadvantage unless you have two boards in the same net
18:36
se6astian
interessting ;), agreed its rather useful indeed
18:50
se6astian
ok massive wiki update for dhcp and tftp setup done
18:51
se6astian
the hdmi test SD card image I will document/try tomorrow evening
18:51
Bertl
okay
