I’ve tried flashing my TX2 using both Jetpack and the R27/1 flashing scripts, but both stall after this point:
james@james-MacBookPro:~/Linux_for_Tegra$ sudo ./flash.sh jetson-tx2 mmcblk0p1
./tegraflash.py --chip 0x18 --applet “/home/james/Linux_for_Tegra/bootloader/mb1_recovery_prod.bin” --cmd “dump eeprom boardinfo cvm.bin” --skipuid

^^ Script stalls here ^^
I’m running Ubuntu 16.04 on a Macbook Pro and am using the provided USB cable for the flashing procedure. I noticed that the micro-usb port doesn’t seem to be a tight fit, not sure if this is common across all TX2’s or if this is a related issue.
I’m going through the recovery boot mode, but am having no luck flashing my TX2. Any ideas on what could be going wrong here?
Running lsusb shows the following output:
