 Since there are slight differences in the Vivado 2019.1 and the version in which the Microblaze tutorial was created, the user needs to check all the connections in the block design to make sure that are correctly made or present. Since there are slight differences in the Vivado 2019.1 and the version in which the Microblaze tutorial was created, the user needs to check all the connections in the block design to make sure that are correctly made or present.

 + 
 +  * Open **bootloader.c** from the sources and scroll down until you find the call to **XIsf_Initialize**. Double click the function name to highlight it, right click and select "Open Declaration". This will open **xilisf.c**. 
 +  * Add the following line somewhere near the top of **xilisf.c** 
 +<code>#define XISF_MACRONIX_DEV_MX25L3233F 0x2016  /**< Device ID for MX25L3233F */ </code> 
 +  * In **xilisf.c** find the definition for IntelStmDevices[] and add the following: 
 +<code>{XISF_MANUFACTURER_ID_MACRONIX, XISF_MACRONIX_DEV_MX25L3233F, 
 +XISF_BYTES256_PER_PAGE, XISF_PAGES256_PER_SECTOR,

 +===Important if you are using a board with Macronix flash.=== 
 +The source files that need editing are part of a library (https://xilinx-wiki.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/A/pages/18841939/xilisf) compiled into a bsp/domain. By navigating to the source files in SDK/Vitis, the local copy of the library's source files are opened. Any modification is done on this local copy and build into the static library (and application) upon build. However, when the source files of the bsp/domain are re-generated (context menu, Regenerate BSP sources), the changes made as explained above are overwritten from the originals in the Xilinx install directory. Take care this does not happen. 
 + 
 +A more permanent solution is forking the library repository (https://github.com/Xilinx/embeddedsw) editing the sources there and including a path to the modified repository in SDK/Vitis Xilinx->Repositories->Global.
