    Hi

    I have the Mimas V2 and have been working on lesson 6 of the tutorial. I am unable to create the bin file to progam the Spartan 6. I have attached the cmd prompt and the files that core gen created. Could someone please point me in the right direction. At this point I am at a loss.

    Thanks

    Hi,

    From your first screenshot it looks like you haven't run "C:\Xilinx\14.7\ISE_DS\settings64.bat" first before doing anything. That's why all of the xilinx's programs like "map", "bitgen" etc are getting unrecognized.

    Type on you command prompt:
    cmd> C:\Xilinx\14.7\ISE_DS\settings64.bat

    After that you can now continue your work.

    Regards,
    rohith

    Thanks for your help, but I finally figured it out this morning. The reason it wasn't recognizing map, or XST, etc as an operable command or batch file is because the path to the Xilinx build tools were not added to the Path environment variables. Once I figured out how to do that and I added the path it all worked perfectly.
