Creating Boot Images Using BootGen

BootGen is used to create a flash image for Zynq-7000 devices.

Boot and Configuration of the Zynq-7000 All Programmable SoC Software Developers Guide describes BootGen and information about the creating boot images.

Detailed steps on building a bootable image using bootgen is available in the Zynq-7000 All Programmable SoC: Concepts, Tools and Techniques in section 5.25 Take a Test Drive! Booting Linux from Quad-SPI Flash.
