After installing Vivado 2017.4 and Petalinux 2017.4, clone the project.

source /path/to/vivado/settings64.sh
source /path/to/petalinux/settings64.sh

git clone --recursive https://github.com/braun-vogt/VHDL_Testing_Platform.git

modify paths in config.txt in pc/Server_TCL 

Build Petalinux Image

cd VHDL_Testing_Platform
cd petalinux
petalinux-config --get-hw-description=../hw_handoff
petalinux-build
petalinux-package --boot --fsbl image/linux/zynq.elf --fpga image/linux/top.bit --u-boot

Copy BOOT.bin and image.db to the formatted SD Card and flash the filesystem.

Network Setup / Test

1. Connect the Zybo and the IP Cam to a Network with DHCP.
2. Navigate to the IP of the Zybo. for example: http://192.168.1.2/cgi-bin/gpio
3. Select a user with http://192.168.1.2/cgi-bin/gpio?user=philipp
