PROCESSOR-SDK-J721E: File Loader: Verification failed: Target failed to write 0x80800000

Part Number: PROCESSOR-SDK-J721E

I am following the instructions here: https://software-dl.ti.com/jacinto7/esd/processor-sdk-linux-jacinto7/08_04_00_11/exports/docs/linux/Foundational_Components/U-Boot/Apps-Load-in-CCS.html

I'm able to load the SPL and u-boot-spl.bin file at start address of 0x41C00000 as defined in u-boot-spl.map

However, when I try to load u-boot with "Load->Load Program", I get the following error messages in console:

Trouble Writing Memory Block at 0x80800000 on Page 0 of Length 0x7ff0: (Error -1170 @ 0x80801000) Unable to access the DAP. Reset the device, and retry the operation. If error persists, confirm configuration, power-cycle the board, and/or try more reliable JTAG settings (e.g. lower TCLK). (Emulation package 9.9.0.00040)
MCU_Cortex_R5_0: File Loader: Verification failed: Target failed to write 0x80800000
MCU_Cortex_R5_0: GEL: File: /home/dev/ti-u-boot/r5/u-boot: Load failed.

One thing that is different for me compared to the documentation is that in step 2, my minicom windows does not print "ccccc" when connected to the EVM.

I have tried this with the board in No boot mode, and SD boot mode. 
I have also tried this with lower JTAG TCLK. 

I was able to successfully complete the Debugging SPL in CCS instructions, so I'm pretty sure I'm building u-boot correctly

    Are you connected to R5F while loading the u-boot? If yes, can you try connecting to A72 and then load u-boot?
