Dear @v.hunglx2,
Could you please confirm if the requirements in Getting Started with DRIVE Software :: NVIDIA DRIVE AGX System Installation and Setup is followed. I notice some flashing issues with fuseblk partion type(run df -Th on host to know partion type). If so, please check with ext4 partition.

Hi @SivaRamaKrishnaNV,
i have the same setup with the same problem here.
My host system outputs following with: df -Th

@v.hunglx2 maybe you can crosscheck if your fault is the same. Else I will open an seperate thread for my problem.

Dear @mspilker ,
it seems your issue is different. It seems you already filed similar topic at Error 5 during flashing . Could you follow on the same thread?

Dear @SivaRamaKrishnaNV ,

thanks for your reply.
It was the same problem as last time:

Just the errorcode was missing from last time

Flashing process exited with error 5

which mislead me to this thread.

Dear @mspilker,
So, is the issue fixed?if not please file new topic.

Hello @SivaRamaKrishnaNV,
yes, the zip file from the other thread solved my problem - excuse me for not expressing myself precisely

Dear @yafei.meng ,
Could you please file a new topic?

Dear @v.hunglx2,
Could you provide any update on the issue?

12

because when i launch the sdkmanager, got some APT repo connection issue.
then i give up to flash the board.

Hi, the issue was caused by not having enough storage space. Now I can flash Drive AGX normally.
