Hi,
I was not sure, so I started the box again and issued a reload from fallback ...
... and get the same result.
So yes - I did a reload before testing.
... and before you ask: I have not tried another bitfile for the 5i24
Do I need to write the bitfile in primary memory to get it working?
P.S. to find the way back to this forum-section:
I created an xml-file with mesaflash and copied the output from --readhmid into a pin-file.
Then I created a directory called "hostmot2-firmware-5i24" at /usr/share/doc and copied the xml-file to /lib/firmware/hm2/5i24 ...
... but when I select the 5i24 entry in pncconf, it traps with this error:
Code:
Traceback (most recent call last):

File "/usr/local/src/linuxcnc-dev/bin/pncconf", line 943, in parse_xml
meta = self.get_board_meta(currentboard)
NameError: global name 'currentboard' is not defined
What else do I have to do, to get pncconf working?
