Please try to configure nvpartitionmap.txt before you restore.
If I try restoring it with the l4t_backup_restore.sh script I get the following flashing error:

Error flashing non-qspi storage
not sure if I did everything correctly. I created the backup by following the steps in the README_backup_restore.txt file.
E.g executing the commands and connecting the jetson I want to create the image from in recovery mode:
$ systemctl stop udisks2.service
$ sudo tools/l4t_flash_prerequisites.sh
$ sudo service nfs-kernel-server start
$ sudo ./tools/backup_restore/l4t_backup_restore.sh -e nvme0n1 -b jetson-orin-nano-devkit
Than I modified the nvpartitionmap.txt file in the folder ./tools/backup_restore/images to only contain the lines:
board_spec,3767-300-0005-M.1-1-1-jetson-orin-nano-devkit-
gptmbr.img,gpt_1,0,40,,1b8a53b891fcbf625040bfb640bac9666108bb52418d4daebc4876d3f233629b
gptbackup.img,gpt_2,976773135,33,,22b2382387f9103962255a6a2f4db6229a0878d1dd5b86217fc8a0b0a1b2ef5e
nvme0n1p1_bak.img,nvme0n1,3050048,973723072,,b3e51a316baee5545c0ace79324263b23eb94c61c908a0f1a1a94138be4b6d69
after this I connected another jetson which was initial flashed with the sdk-manager in recovery mode. On this jetson I want to restore the backuped app partition. I tried to do this with the following command.
sudo ./tools/backup_restore/l4t_backup_restore.sh -e nvme0n1 -r jetson-orin-nano-devkit
I also attached the flashing log file
flash_1-6_0_20241122-104824.log (6.9 KB)
May I know why you just want to restore APP partition rather than every partitions?
Would it work if you don’t modify nvpartitionmap.txt and let it restore whole disk?
I don’t want to restore the partition, I want to clone the jetson setup onto another jetson.
Backup/restore script for all partitions would also meet your requirement to “clone the jetson setup onto another jetson”.
If you clone system image from one NVMe SSD on 1st board and restore it to NVMe SSD on 2nd board with different size for APP partition, there might be the error.
So, we would suggest just performing backup/restore script for all partitions.
Please also try using the following command instead.
$ sudo ./tools/kernel_flash/l4t_initrd_flash.sh --external-device nvme0n1p1 -c ./tools/kernel_flash/flash_l4t_external.xml -k APP --flash-only --external-only jetson-orin-nano-devkit external
