Some additional steps are necessary to ensure that OpenOCD can communicate with the FPGA board.
On Linux, first ensure that the current user belongs to the ``plugdev`` group (i.e. ``plugdev`` shown when you run ``$ groups``). If it does not, run ``sudo adduser $USER plugdev`` and re-login.

You may need to repeat these steps every time you plug the FPGA board into a port where it has not been plugged into previously on the same system.

In other cases, install OpenOCD as before, and flash the IP and MAC addresses directly: ::
$ artiq_mkfs flash_storage.img -s mac xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx -s ip xx.xx.xx.xx
$ artiq_flash -t [board] -V [adapter] -f flash_storage.img storage start

Check that you can ping the device. If ping fails, check that the Ethernet link LED is ON - on Kasli, it is the LED next to the SFP0 connector. As a next step, look at the messages emitted on the UART during boot. Use a program such as flterm or PuTTY to connect to the device's serial port at 115200bps 8-N-1 and reboot the device. On Kasli, the serial port is on FTDI channel 2 with v1.1 hardware (with channel 0 being JTAG) and on FTDI channel 1 with v1.0 hardware.
