root says "Permission denied"

[blacksea680]

I'm trying to implement Anton Potočnik's Led Blinker project and I made it through all steps except the last one, where I need to execute "cat /root/led_blink.bit > /dev/xdevcfg" on the Red Pitaya console (on Windows10). When I try to do that, it gives me the error "Permission denied." I'm surely connected to the root and my bitstream file is in the correct location. Does anyone have any advice on what the problem would be?

Hello blacksea 680,

Thank you for writing on the forum.

Here are a few suggestions:

• Try using the "rw" command before you change the FPGA image

• Try using "sudo" before the command

• If you are using the 2.00 OS version, you will have to perform some extra steps: https://redpitaya-knowledge-base.readth ... g-the-fpga

Let me know how it goes.

Following the steps on the RP page for 2.00 OS worked, thank you so much!

Glad it worked!

Good luck with your projects!
