Hi, I am current trying to find out how to flash to USB drive without the need for the USB drive to be connected to ORIN NX itself.
Hi,
I believe this is what you are looking for:
https://docs.nvidia.com/jetson/archives/r35.4.1/DeveloperGuide/text/SD/FlashingSupport.html#to-set-up-a-flash-drive-manually-for-booting
I have attempted the instructions with
sudo time ./tools/kernel_flash/l4t_initrd_flash.sh -S 60GiB -c tools/kernel_flash/flash_l4t_external.xml --external-device sdb1 --external-only p3509-a02+p3767-0000 external
Error: Return value 4
Command tegraparser_v2 --generategpt --pt flash.xml.bin
Error: /home/ubu/Downloads/defaultbsp/sources_orin/Linux_for_Tegra/bootloader/signed/flash.idx is not found
Error: failed to relocate images to /home/ubu/Downloads/defaultbsp/sources_orin/Linux_for_Tegra/tools/kernel_flash/images
Cleaning up...
Command exited with non-zero status 1

17528847inputs+22855296outputs (80major+287031minor)pagefaults 0swaps
I also attempted to repeat with
sudo BOARDID=3767 BOARDSKU=0000 FAB=TS2 ./tools/kernel_flash/l4t_initrd_flash.sh -S 60GiB -c tools/kernel_flash/flash_l4t_external.xml --external-device sdb1 --external-only p3509-a02+p3767-0000 external
with the same error
Have you checked the link I pasted?
I think you should be doing like:
sudo <env-var> ./tools/kernel_flash/l4t_initrd_flash.sh [ -S <rootfssize> ] -c tools/kernel_flash/flash_l4t_external.xml --external-device sda1 --direct <sdx> p3509-a02+p3767-0000 external
If there is no Jetson device in force recovery mode connected to the host PC, then you have to manually pass the board information to the flashing script. I’m not sure whether you are using Orin NX 16GB or 8GB, so please check README_initrd_flash.txt for it.
Also, you have to specify the --direct <sdx> parameter, which is how the USB drive is recognized in your host PC.
You should use either one of them:
# jetson-orin-nano-devkit (NX 16GB) 3767 0000 300
# jetson-orin-nano-devkit (NX 8GB) 3767 0001 300
Also, please always put the full log here, and don’t crop it yourself.
Hi, may I check 300 is referring to which variable? I am assuming it is the FAB. Also I am using Orin NX 16GB
It comes from Linux_for_Tegra/tools/kernel_flash/README_initrd_flash.txt.

Alright, just saw as I could not find the Orin NX until you stated it. May I check if the external USB will be automatically modified? So, no action is required on my side to delete items?

Hi,
I just tested on my side, and it turns out that you need to manually modify the num_sectors variable in Linux_for_Tegra/tools/kernel_flash/flash_l4t_external.xml. You may get the sector size of the storage device with sudo fdisk -l.
Also, you don’t need to format the USB drive, just make sure none of the partitions on it is mounted on the host PC. If it gets mounted automatically by Ubuntu, unmount it before proceeding.
Hi I managed to flashed it with the following options:
sudo BOARDID=3767 BOARDSKU=0000 FAB=300 ./tools/kernel_flash/l4t_initrd_flash.sh -S 60GiB -c tools/kernel_flash/flash_l4t_external.xml --external-device sda1 --direct sdb1 --showlogs --external-only p3509-a02+p3767-0000 external
Log:
flash_direct_0_20230825-131338.log (12.1 KB)
However, when I insert the USB Drive into the Orin NX to boot, it remains blank after showing this image:
Did you set the boot order in UEFI?
No, but default is to the USB first anyways. I also attempted to select it at Boot Manager Menu
Also do I need to put it in recovery mode?
Hi,
I think your USB drive is not flashed completely, and have you checked it’s content after flashing?
Looks like you got all the partitions but the APP partitions done.
Normally, you should see log like this:

Can you please try again with methods I mentioned here?
The -S option is not needed.
Or maybe try formatting the USB drive to form a single partition, as the issue looks related not all space being used.
When I try to mount and read:
I tried with your method the initially already. I have already modify num_sectors to what fdisk -l stated on sdb1, and executing apply binaries before flashing.
Also I want to specify APP size. If so, what should I do other than -S?
Regarding “Or maybe try formatting the USB drive to form a single partition, as the issue looks related not all space being used.” does it mean I use sdb instead of sdb1 as the external device for --direct? May you please clarify.
You should use the sector size of the whole disk, but not a single partition.
Oh, Yes.
I didn’t notice that you used sdb1 instead of sdb, and please try again with sdb.
Hi, I attempted with (SDC is because host read it differently):
sudo BOARDID=3767 BOARDSKU=0000 FAB=300 ./tools/kernel_flash/l4t_initrd_flash.sh -c tools/kernel_flash/flash_l4t_external.xml --external-device sda1 --direct sdc --showlogs --external-only p3509-a02+p3767-0000 external
Error still persist as previously. Also, unable to mount to read due to same reason stated previously.
