Platform packages reference "devices" that typically define a memory map 
for the "on-chip" memory.  This allows one to create multiple platforms 
with different external memory (and peripherials) without duplicating 
the device information (which is the same).

The error above suggests that you duplicated the platform package files 
and renamed the device named in the Platform.xdc file to 
TMS320CTNETV107X _but_ you did not create the device module containing 
the device information.  You need to create a device module named 
TMS320CTNETV107X.

To create the TMS320CTNETV107X module simply copy another device .xdc 
file from the ti.catalog.c6000 package and modify it to reflect the 
TMS320CTNETV107X properties.  Put this module in your platform package 
(modify the package.xdc file to name this new module and modify the 
Platform module to name the platform package as the "catalog" containing 
the device) and re-build the platform package.
