About USB Booting of AGX Orin

Hi,

The Developer Guide below states that the AGX Xavier must be flashed to emmc once for USB booting.
No mention of AGX Orin, so, is it possible to USB boot even if the emmc is blank for AGX Orin?
In other words, can the bootloader and Kernel files also be stored on USB storage for booting?

===
Jetson AGX Xavier series devices use boot firmware that is stored only on internal eMMC memory, and the esp partition on internal eMMC memory is also required. As a result, this type of device can boot from a USB or an NVMe drive only if the drive’s internal eMMC has been flashed.

Yes, it is possible.

No, it is not possible because bootloader is not on your usb storage. It is on the QSPI storage in the module.
