I am trying to set up a brand new Jetson Orin Nano Developer Kit with the following instructions:
I connected the DisplayPort, keyboard, and mouse. I then powered the Jetson with the included DC power supply.
I opened the UEFI menu and saw the version number 3.0 under “Not Specified”. With that information, I deduced that I needed to update the firmware.
I downloaded the Jetpack 5.1.3 image from the download link on the page and flashed it to a 64GB SD card using Balena Etcher
I unplugged the Jetson, inserted the SD card into the Jetson, then plugged it back in. The Nvidia splash screen came on for a few seconds, then everything went black and the screen would not come back. The green light on the jetson was still on and the fan was still running.
I unplugged the Jetson then plugged it back in and I got the same issue, but it looks like the firmware version is now 5.0. I cycled the power several times and got the same issue.
Here is a picture of the splash screen before it crashes
I was able to flash Jetpack 5.1.3 using a Ubuntu PC. I’m supposed to check that the current version of nvbootctl is 35.5.0 with this command:
sudo nvbootctrl dump-slots-info
However, when I run the command I get the following result
Current version: 0.0.1
Capsule update status: 0
Current bootloader slot: A
Active bootloader slot: A
num_slots: 2
slot: 0, status: normal
slot: 1, status: normal
According to this result, my firmware is not up to date.
I tried rebooting after 5 minutes but I get the same result. Is it safe to proceed? What are the next steps?
