Description

With the update to v2024.2 versions of the tutorials the Vitis Platform KV260 tutorial no longer describes how to correctly generate the dtbo file required to run the application on the starter kit.

I believe this is an error as it is required to be able to run the applications and is referenced in step 3 as being generated in step 2. Could this be added back in or is there an update to the process to do this?

Vitis_Platform_Creation/Design_Tutorials/01-Edge-KV260/step2.md

I mostly bring this up as I can't get this example to run on a KR260 running ubuntu which is currently the recommended initial install target for the KR260 platform. Is this example a petalinux only example? If so is there any way we can get an updated version of this for Ubuntu + Vitis + KR260?

Research direction

Start with Vitis_Platform_Creation/Design_Tutorials/01-Edge-KV260/step2.md and compare its instructions with the reference to step 3. Determine how the dtbo file should be generated for the v2024.2 tutorial and whether the documented flow targets PetaLinux or Ubuntu on KR260. Done means the tutorial clearly explains the required generation steps and the supported target environment.
