Hi
I am trying to flash Jetson Orin Nano (8GB) with R35.4.1 to boot from nvme and enable A/B partitions for OTA updates. I am following the workflow #5 of the README_initrd_flash.txt. I have been getting the following error.

sudo ROOTFS_AB=1 ./tools/kernel_flash/l4t_initrd_flash.sh --external-device nvme0n1 -S 70GiB -c ./tools/kernel_flash/flash_l4t_nvme_rootfs_ab.xml jetson-orin-nano-devkit external

Error:

I have similar observation. I see the nvsdkmanager_flash.sh the script works fine but when we use l4t_initrd_flash.sh (workflow3) the flashing is a failure.

There is no update from you for a period, assuming this is not an issue any more.
Hence we are closing this topic. If need further support, please open a new one.
Thanks

Hi rohit.bhandarkar,

Are you using the devkit or custom board for Orin Nano?

[   2.5200 ] End sector for APP, expected at: 41943006, actual: 0
Error: Return value 4

What’s the physical size of your NVMe SSD?
Could you share the flash_l4t_nvme_rootfs_ab.xml from your BSP package for further check?
