07:28 <_florent_> somlo: i'm using this FMC because that's the one i used to develop LiteSATA initially a few years ago on a KC705

07:29 <_florent_> somlo: but i also experimented with cheaper alternatives recently

07:31 <_florent_> but this also works by hacking a 10€ PCIe riser and SATA cable: https://twitter.com/enjoy_digital/status/1320747775626272769

08:59 <Melkhior> Made the 'B' support for VexRsicv a bit more configurable: https://github.com/rdolbeau/VexRiscvBPluginGenerator/ if anyone is interested :-)

10:19 <st-gourichon-fid> Melkhior, not directly interested by B, but congrats for implementation so far and keep up the good work!

19:59 <somlo> _florent_: how do you build trellisboard bitstream for the `sdcard_pmod_io` option (as opposed to the built-in reader)?

20:01 <somlo> I'm experiencing a weird behavior (which I don't remember seeing with spi-mode sdcard) whereby once programmed, if I insert a sdcard into the built-in slot, the board crashes out of my terminal emulator, and locks up until reprogrammed

20:02 <somlo> daveshah: ^^^ did you ever encounter anything similar?

20:02 <daveshah> Admittedly I haven't tested the SD card much

20:03 <daveshah> but a thicker USB cable might be advisble

20:03 <daveshah> sounds a bit like a power issue

20:07 <somlo> hmmm, last time I tried it successfully it was plugged (using the same usb cable) into my desktop rig at the office (before covid); So, power might be a factor. I'm rebuilding using `--with-spi-sdcard` to verify if that still works; if not, that'd be further evidence that it's power-related...

20:38 <daveshah> I had one USB cable where the board would fail at the moment of booting Linux

20:39 <daveshah> (not using the SD card in that case though)

23:56 <somlo> daveshah: when I build the bitstream with `--with-spi-sdcard` it doesn't crash no matter how many times I insert/eject the actual sdcard

23:57 <somlo> but with `--with-sdcard` it goes bonkers every time I insert the card (after starting the bitstream)

23:58 <somlo> that's with the built-in reader; I'm going to try the same test (spi and native) with the external pmod reader, and see what happens there
