enable to program FPGA
I'm trying to program the FPGA and boot over an SD card in xc7z020-clg400-1 zynq chip inside parallella, I can't figure out where is the problem, I have did vivado design , generate bitstream, create the FSBL project, and for the u-boot, I just download this one https://github.com/parallella/parallella-flash/blob/master/u-boot.elf, (maybe I should build u-boot?)
Here is the bash terminal

Error: Timeout waiting for FPGA to config.
Sounds like your FPGA bit stream has the wrong file format. If you renamed a file like elink2_top_wrapper.bit from the synthesis output to parallella.bit.bin then this is the case. You need to convert the format using bootgen -image bit2bin.bif -split bin with a .bif file that points to your synthesis output (modify one from the parallella repository).
I've had success using my own bitstream (headless) by just replacing parallella.bit.bin file of an official release. However you need to leave the epiphany stuff in place in your FPGA design, or else the kernel will hang while trying to initialize it. (Or you need to replace kernel and/or device tree too).
Another possibility is that you targeted the wrong FPGA device in your design. IIRC the bitstream file size is always the same, so you can compare file sizes to check if you got the right format.
