I want to try to boot Orin from a USB drive
I inserted a USB drive into my computer.Run this command line.
But it failed.
Please read the initrd flash readme file workflow 13.
I checked the readme file, which contains at most workflow 11. no 13
Oh sorry. Then read workflow 11.
Please umount the device on your host before running.
umount USB drive and run the l4t_initrd_flash.sh like this:
sudo BOARDID=3701 BOARDSKU=0000 FAB=TS4 BOARDREV=A.0 ./tools/kernel_flash/l4t_initrd_flash.sh -c tools/kernel_flash/flash_l4t_external.xml -S 20GiB --external-device sda1 --direct sda jetson-agx-orin-devkit external
the error is:

- the xml indicates the gpt is larger than the device storage
- the xml might be invalid
- the device might have a problem.
Please make correction.
is our hardware connect correctly?
What is the disk size you write in the xml file?
67108864 (32 * 1024 * 1024 * 2)
we also test which used 64G USB drive and use origin file . and it shows the same error.
Hi fzy438484102,
Please use below command to check USB disk size first on your host PC:
$ sudo lsblk -p -d | grep sd
You can use this size to your xml file and run again.
we flashed successly according to your suggestion. Thanks for your help.
note:
size in xml <= your real capacity of USB drive
