Hmm, interesting.

Ok, so I picked the wrong one. But still works for me on this one.

So something like this is probably more weird. Which compiler do you
use?
Could you try this image?
http://os.inf.tu-dresden.de/~adam/dl/bootstrap-zedboard-l4linux.raw
It works just fine for me.
I could also try / have a look at your image. Send via PM.
