how to convert .axf file to .bin file? **the bare-metal application, Cyclone V , SD-card**

[KBill3]

Hello all 😄.

To run the bare-metal application on Altera Cyclone V using HPS from SD-card., some steps need to be done, i have a problem in this step:

Create simple app in DS-5, compile it and obtain test.axf then convert it to test.bin using fromelf command and then convert it in test.img with mkimage tool.

how and where should i use this fromelf command?

Thanks in advance.

​I just include it in the post-build steps (under Build Steps tab in the C/C++ Build Settings):

fromelf --bincombined ${ProjName}.axf --output=${ProjName}.bin

Thanks in Advance.

​I issue the mkimage command from outside the DS-5 tool as a manual post-build step.

I do this from a SoC EDS command shell.

If someone knows the way to get this step completed from the DS-5 tool I'd be happy to hear about it !
