A makefile is included with the GHRD to provide automated command line build options. This can be used as an alternative build method and some users might find this more convenient.

The makefile utilities can be separated into the following categories

• Quartus and Qsys GUI edit
• Quartus and Qsys compile
• Generate .sof and .rbf FPGA images
• Program the FPGA or QSPI devices via the USB-Blaster II
• Reset the HPS via the USB-Blaster II
• Create the preloader and u-boot images
• Copy the preloader and u-boot binary images to an SD card binary partition
