Check that /boot/config.txt contains the following line
dtparam=spi=on
To see mesa card info: sudo mesaflash --device 7C81 --spi --addr /dev/spidev0.0 --readhmid
To verify a loaded file:
sudo mesaflash --device 7C81 --spi --addr /dev/spidev0.0 --verify FPGAFILE.BIT
To write new bit file:
sudo mesaflash --device 7C81 --spi --addr /dev/spidev0.0 --write FPGAFILE.BIT
To write fallback bit file:
sudo mesaflash --device 7C81 --spi --addr /dev/spidev0.0 --fallback --write FALLBACK.BIT
fallback bit file is provided by Mesa and will load if the user config is corrupt or invalid. The Init LED will flash if the fallback config is activated and a new bitfile can be loaded.
