Hi all, so I got this Orin Nano that I haven’t touched since 2024, still on L4T 35.3.x. Tried booting it up again recently and flashed the JetPack 5.1.3 SD card image (JP513-orin-nano-sd-card-image_b29.zip) but it just gets stuck at:

EFI Stub: Exiting Boot Services and Installing Virtual address map...

Stuff I already tried:

  • Checked the power supply (DC barrel jack, 9-19V) — seems fine, no issue there
  • Re-flashed the SD card with a fresh image (same JP513 image), still same problem
  • Tried Force Recovery Mode and it works, lsusb shows 0955:7e19 NVIDIA Corp. APX on host so recovery mode is fine

My setup:

  • Board: Orin Nano Dev Kit

  • JetPack I’m trying to flash: JetPack 5.1.3 (SD card image, build 29)

  • Flash method: SD card image, written from CachyOS (Arch-based Linux)

  • Host OS: CachyOS x86_64

Anyone been through this before? Planning to do full reflash with flash.sh/SDK Manager including QSPI bootloader, but SDK Manager only officially supports Ubuntu — is there a workaround for Arch-based distros, or should I just set up an Ubuntu machine/VM for this?
