Xilinx Alveo U50 Installation Guide

1. Download the desired XRT and deployment plaorm packages. Follow installaon steps 5
through 10 in XRT and Deployment Plaorm Installaon Procedures on Ubuntu.
Downgrading Packages
1. Restore the card to the original manufacturing state by running the following command.
$ sudo /opt/xilinx/xrt/bin/xbmgmt flash --factory_reset
2. Remove the current XRT and shell versions.
$ sudo apt remove xrt
3. Cold reboot the system.
4. Follow the installaon procedures outlined in Chapter 4: Installing the Deployment Soware.
It is not recommended to downgrade to a beta version. However, if you must downgrade to a
beta package, it is necessary to rst factory reset all the U50 cards installed on the system.
Downgrading to a beta package without rst factory reseng all U50 cards installed on the
system can result in unexpected behavior. For beta package installaon, follow the installaon
steps in version 1.4 of the Alveo U50 Data Center Accelerator Card Installaon Guide (UG1370).

Uninstalling Packages

command in a Linux terminal. Uninstalling XRT also uninstalls the deployment plaorm.

Note: Make sure that all of the target plaorm packages are displayed in the output terminal aer running
the command. If not, manually list the packages using the list command at the beginning of this secon,
then delete the remaining packages using the remove command.
