Could the reason be that the FPGA manager in it's current state expects one big buffer with the entire FPGA bitstream ? When you're in SPL and you still don't have DRAM running, you cannot create such buffer anywhere. Thus, what you need to do is to have some sort of code which loads a bit of the bitstream file at time and feeds it into the FPGA manager, piece by piece. This should be doable pretty easily, what do you think ?
