Hi, I recently flashed my Jetson Orin Nano Developer Kit with Jetson Linux version 36.3, following the official instructions provided on this page: Link1 Instead of using the sample root filesystem, I generated a minimal flavor root filesystem as outlined in the official documentation here: Link2 T…

Hi, Looks like the issue here is In minimal rootfs, pcie driver won’t get loaded even when driver is in /lib/modules/. Somehow initrd does not have pcie driver installed either With above 2, pcie driver is gone so nvme driver won’t be up. Sdcard and usb driver are in the kernel image but…

You should use serial console to check the status of the board and attach full log. [image] Jetson Nano & NX Style - Serial Debug Console - JetsonHacks The Serial Debug Console is the most basic way to be able to interface with your Jetson Nano & NX Style Developer Kit. All it takes is …

Hi, I used the serial console to check the status of the board and have attached the full log. Please take a look and help me resolve the booting issue. Thank you. fulllog_boardstatus.log (73.6 KB)

Hi, I have switched to normal mode and rebooted, but it still fails. I’ve attached the log file. Please take a look and help me resolve the issue. Thank you. NormalBootingLog.log (339.5 KB)

It looks like PCIe driver is gone from your log and leads to nvme not able to mount. Do you remember too keep the pcie driver in yoru minimal rootfs?

Hi, I didn’t find any PCIe folder at the following path: ../Linux_for_Tegra/rootfs/lib/modules/5.15.236-tegra/kernel/drivers/. Do I need to include that driver folder in the above directory? If yes, could you please guide me on how to do that? If not, where should I check to confirm whether the PC…

Why is this kernel “5.15.236” when our latest BSP is still using 5.15.148? Did you customize the kernel and without adding any of kernel modules with it? This is not related just aboue PCIe driver. Basically every NVIDIA downstream driver is not in your BSP.

Apologies, there was a mistake in the path I provided. It should be “5.15.136-tegra,” not “5.15.236-tegra.”

But these drivers are there by default… etPack_6.0_Linux_JETSON_ORIN_NANO_TARGETS/Linux_for_Tegra/rootfs/lib/modules/5.15.136-tegra$ find -iname "*pcie*" ./kernel/drivers/pci/controller/pcie-brcmstb.ko ./kernel/drivers/pci/controller/dwc/pcie-tegra194.ko ./kernel/drivers/pci/controller/pcie-rockchi…

Yes, the drivers are found. [image] I haven’t changed the initrd. Please let me know How can I verify that?

This log indicates it is already in recovery boot. Which means this log has no value to check.

Follow this page to make it able to do normal boot again. If normal boot fails, share me that log.
