In the top level directory, do the following:
$ grep PQ2FADS Makefile
PQ2FADS_config \
PQ2FADS_lowboot_config \
PQ2FADS-VR_config \
PQ2FADS-VR_lowboot_config \
PQ2FADS-ZU_config \
PQ2FADS-ZU_lowboot_config \
PQ2FADS-ZU_66MHz_config \
PQ2FADS-ZU_66MHz_lowboot_config \
I would expect PQ2FADS-VR_config or PQ2FADS-VR_lowboot_config would work
(if you don't have the "lowboot" version, you may want to update your
u-boot copy from the head of CVS).
The lowboot is configured to boot with the Boot Memory Space HWCW[BMS]
set to 1 (i.e. booting at 0x00000000) and is the recommended
configuration. In this case you _must_ use the HRCW from flash rather
than from the FPGA (sorry, I forgot what they called the registers in
the FPGA). I highly recommend using the HRCW from flash and lowboot.
If you live right ;-), you can actually make a "lowboot" and a "high
boot" version and program both into your board. Run with the lowboot
version and, if you screw up u-boot[low] (not that I've ever done that
;-), you can recover by switching the configuration to use the
FPGA-supplied HRCW to "boot high" out of the alternate u-boot image.
