Hi,

I have been trying to install 5i25 MESA card. I am planning to use with 7i76. So I install driver as followed:
sudo mesaflash --device 5I25 --write 5i25_7i76x2.bit

with output:
Checking file... OK
  File type: BIT file
Boot sector OK
EEPROM sectors to write: 6, max sectors in area: 16
Erasing EEPROM sectors starting from 0x100000...
  |EEEEEE
Programming EEPROM sectors starting from 0x100000...
  |WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
Board configuration updated successfully.

You must power cycle board or use --reload command to load updated firmware.

They I am trying to verify it and getting
sudo mesaflash --device 5I25 --verify 5i25_7i76x2.bit
Checking file... OK
  File type: BIT file
Boot sector OK
Verifying EEPROM sectors starting from 0x100000...
  |VVVVV
Error at 0x10AA24 expected: 0x80 but read: 0x8

I dont really know what is happening or how to fix it.

Thanks for help

Are you using the latest mesaflash?
Some older versions had issues with 64 bit OS's

github.com/jethornton/mesaflash
is the latest

Does retrying work?

I clone the directory as you suggested but I got following output
eeprom_local.c:21:21: fatal error: pci/pci.h: No such file or directory


I am on Ubuntu 16.04 RTAI
Thanks

packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/libpci-dev

Basically you can use google to search for the missing file & what package it belongs to

or you can try this
apt contains "pci/pci.h"
