Description
Hello,
I started a JupyterLab session and failed when compiled merge-sort project for FPGA hardware.
First problem: I followed this bleow tutorial and compiled two times with two boards provided by github but met the same problem.
https://github.com/oneapi-src/oneAPI-samples/tree/master/DirectProgramming/C%2B%2BSYCL_FPGA/ReferenceDesigns/merge_sort

Second problem:
Github provides FPGA precompiled binaries (merge_sort.fpga). We found we have no permission to run this executable file. Shall we get some supports or suggestions to run our design on hardware?

This is our first time running code on an FPGA, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. And we will continue to look for solutions.
Thank you,
Wanyu

Research direction
Start with the merge_sort FPGA reference-design tutorial linked in the issue and review the compiler failure shown in the first screenshot. Then investigate the permission error for the provided merge_sort.fpga binary and how it is intended to run on the target hardware. Done means the project compiles for a supported board and the precompiled design can be run, or the missing prerequisite is documented.
