I expect no support on this image, but this is the first time I failed writing the image to a SD card ..
Have tried with the suggested "WinImage" application, but that one failed the most (asks which partition of the image to open, and fails writing it to the card). I also used the more modern program, Balena Etcher which is highly recommended for writing images (had to uncompress and rename the image file before), success in writing but failed to boot. Next in line was "Raspberry Pi Imager", same "success" as with Etcher.
I've also tried Win32diskimager (ancient) with the same non-bootable result as with the two latter ones.
My next attempt was to install xc3sprog on the current Raspbian/Raspberry Pi OS. No problem with getting the image bootable (and on the same Pi and SD card, written with Etcher). I used the instructions previously mentioned for compiling xc3sprog (
https://anastas.io/hardware/2020/09/29/ ... sprog.html), failed to find the package libgpio-dev (needed ?), but successfully compiled.
Get this when running without anything connected (should it do that ?), I do not have the .jed file in place, but it fails on "sysfsgpio":
Code: Select all
root@raspberrypi:~/xc3sprog/build# ./xc3sprog -c sysfsgpio -p 0 tf330r3_Burst3.jed:w

Can't find description for a cable named sysfsgpio

I get the same "Can't find description for a cable named sysfsgpio" output when running the precompiled package (installed as per instructions on Github):
https://github.com/matrix-io/xc3sprog
Anything more to try before accepting that I will not be able to update my TF536 ?
