Error: flash.idx is not found

Hi,

I’m trying to flash a new board for a custom carrier board we have developed. It was getting stuck at the eeprom step and so I changed the tegra234-mb2-bct-misc-p3767-0000.dts file however did it incorrectly.

First I changed the CVM to 0x0 ( it was meant to be CVB)

                    cvm_eeprom_read_size = <0x0>;
		cvb_eeprom_i2c_instance = <0x0>;

Then in fixing that I actually changed cvb_eeprom_i2c_instance to 0x100.

When i tried flashing it raised an exception that was mostly just numbers.

I went back and fixed that file to the following:

include “tegra234-mb2-bct-common.dtsi”

/ {
mb2-misc {
eeprom {
cvm_eeprom_i2c_instance = <0>;
cvm_eeprom_i2c_slave_address = <0xa0>;
cvm_eeprom_read_size = <0x100>;
cvb_eeprom_i2c_instance = <0x0>;
cvb_eeprom_i2c_slave_address = <0xae>;
cvb_eeprom_read_size = <0x0>;
};
};
};

Which should be correct however now the flashing program gets hung up almost immediately at:
*** no-flash flag enabled. Exiting now… ***

"User can run above saved command in factory environment without
providing pkc and sbk keys to flash a device

*** no-flash flag enabled. Exiting now… ***

User can run above saved command in factory environment without
providing pkc and sbk keys to flash a device

Example:

$ cd bootloader 
$ sudo bash ./flashcmd.txt

Error: /home/teva/Documents/CleanFlash/Linux_for_Tegra/bootloader/signed/flash.idx is not found
Error: failed to relocate images to /home/teva/Documents/CleanFlash/Linux_for_Tegra/tools/kernel_flash/images
Cleaning up…
serial_debug.txt (6.6 KB)
flash_log.txt (34.6 KB)

I have attached the log files for the debug uart port and the outputs from the flash file.

How can I fix this?

Is it safe to try the commands the error has suggested?

Best,

Hi,

Do you run $ sudo ./apply_binaries.sh before?

Thanks

Hi,

Yes I do

What does flash.idx normally do? whats it used for?

Best,

Teva

Hi,

Please refer below commands to flash your orin nano first

flash.idx is a config about how to flash on your target partition.

Thanks
