Flashing L4T35.4.1 to orin nx 8GB SOM fails

[DaveYYY]

The EEPROM is corrupted.
Find the Linux_for_Tegra folder on your host PC, and do

sudo BOARDID=3767 BOARDSKU=0001 FAB=300 \
./tools/kernel_flash/l4t_initrd_flash.sh --external-device nvme0n1p1 \
-c tools/kernel_flash/flash_l4t_t234_nvme.xml -p “-c bootloader/generic/cfg/flash_t234_qspi.xml” \
–showlogs --network usb0 jetson-orin-nano-devkit internal

Then after you can flash your device and it boots up, follow this post to correct the EEPROM:

Parsing board information failed

Hi, If you are still able to log into the Ubuntu system, dump the EEPROM content with sudo i2cdump -f -y 0 0x50 Re-calculate the last (255) CRC bit, and overwrite it with sudo i2cset -f -y 0 0x50 0xff <new_value> If you cannot login, then manually add board info to the flashing command to bypass EEPROM reading BOARDID=3668 BOARDSKU=0000 FAB=100 Check the detailed information in Linux_for_Tegra/tools/kernel_flash/README_initrd_flash.txt.
