Create Jetson Image

I would like to create a jetson linux image ( 35.4.1), which i could use to flash onto multiple agx orin devices, so that i don’t need to always go to sdkmanager and flash them separately.
Can you help me on what should i do to create an image.
Also can i flash the jetson image to a sd card for agx orin?.

No, you have to use sdkmanager to flash the board.

can’t i use flash.sh/nvautoflash.sh or any other scripts to flash the device?

yes, they are okay to be used. Basically, sdkmanager is using nvautoflash.sh and nvautoflash.sh is based on flash.sh.

for flashing the board i would use the scripts, thank you. But i would require to know how to create the image and not just download the sources and flash it directly

There is nothing really called “image” that can plug in a jetson orin and boot up.

There are other software on Orin itself that related to boot.

so if i need to flash a jetson device i should just download the sources and build and execute the flash.sh script?
if i need to add the jetpack components and the deepstream components along with it and flash altogether then what do i need to do?
if i add any external modules and flash will that be possible? as a custom flash?

There is a backup section in this document.

Basically, you need to flash and install everything you want into one jetson first. Use backup method above to back up the image out and use it for other Orin modules.
