Issues Flashing Custom Kernel on Jetson Board (Working Natively)

[kondruabhay]

Hello proventusnova,

The procedure encountering issues is detailed below:

1. Navigate to Linux_for_Tegra/source/kernel/kernel-jammy-src/ and execute the following commands:

   make ARCH=arm64 LOCALVERSION=-davey-tegra defconfig
   make ARCH=arm64 LOCALVERSION=-davey-tegra menuconfig
   make ARCH=arm64 LOCALVERSION=-davey-tegra -j8 Image
   make ARCH=arm64 LOCALVERSION=-davey-tegra -j8 modules
   sudo make modules_install INSTALL_MOD_PATH=/Linux_for_Tegra/rootfs
   

   Then, manually copy the Image file into:

   • Linux_for_Tegra/kernel/Image
   • Linux_for_Tegra/rootfs/boot/Image

2. In Linux_for_Tegra/source/, run the following:

   export KERNEL_HEADERS=$PWD/kernel/kernel-jammy-src
   make modules
   export INSTALL_MOD_PATH=Linux_for_Tegra/rootfs
   sudo -E make modules_install
   

3. In Linux_for_Tegra/, execute:

   sudo ./tools/l4t_update_initrd.sh
   

4. Finally, flash the device.

I based this method on a discussion from this thread.

Best regards,
Kondru Abhay
