Jetson Nano boot errors after flashing with jetpack 4.2.1

Hello, I have been trying to successfully install jetpack 4.2.1 on my Jetson Nano developer kit Model # P3450. I initially tried to use the SDKManager to do the manual installation utilizing USB Recovery mode, however it would stall during the Initialize APP with System.img step.

I have then tried to do the same manual installation utilizing the command line with the directions to use the flash.sh file. By doing that, Flashing appears to be successful, with the prompt to reboot in order to complete setup.

However, when I reboot the device, And plug it into an HDMI Monitor and a USB Keyboard, I get the following messages on the screen:

[1.08] tegradc tegradc.1: dpd enable lookup fail: -19
cp: not writing through dangling symlink 'etc/resolv.conf'

And does not continue from there.

For a little more information:

I preformatted the 32GB SD card to be a single ext4 partition
The device has been set to use a 5V 4A Barrel Jack power supply, and the micro-USB has been plugged into the host machine
Device showed up using the lsusb command
command line flash.sh displays that the flash ran successfully

Any idea on what could be the issue?

Hi mbarbou1,

, however it would stall during the Initialize APP with System.img step

Creating system.img has nothing to do with jetson nano but your host. May I know what is your host environment?

I have tried on 2 different host machines, neither worked using the GUI but the later worked when I did it through the command line, although that resulted in described behavior above:

  1. PopOS! 18.04 LTS with CUDA 10.0 installed, GTX 970 (Self Built)
  2. Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, no CUDA installed, AMD RX 540 (Intel 8th Gen NUC)

No host was done on a VM, any idea why could be the issue?

On the Nano, what do you see from “cat /run/resolvconf/resolv.conf”? Often DHCP modifies the resolv.conf, and a symbolic link points to this from “/etc/” to point at the “/run” version.

How would I go about running that on the Nano? The nano doesn’t seem to boot or allow my to input commands in the slightest.

If the unit doesn’t boot, then you probably need to post a serial console boot log. See:
https://www.jetsonhacks.com/2019/04/19/jetson-nano-serial-console/

FYI, I would bet something went wrong with the flash or SD card image copy. However, if you mount your SD card to a desktop PC running Linux, and you cd to the mount point, then to “./run/resolvconf/”, do you see “resolv.conf” there after “ls”? If so, what shows up from “cat ./resolv.conf”?

To some extent, for testing purposes, it may not matter if the SD card is running on the Jetson, or if the SD is on a host computer. I am curious if the “run/resolvconf/” directory exists, and if it does, the content of the “resolv.conf” there. If something went wrong in your image copy or flash to the SD card, then the host PC might find this as easily as running directly on the Jetson (but the mount point would be somewhere else than “/” if on the PC).

Using my PopOS 18.04 system, I ran ls - l in the SDcard/run folder:

emilybarbour@pop-os:/media/emilybarbour/dc21871e-9db4-434c-98b4-713f55f807eb$ ls -l run/

Personally that look incorrect due to length, but I assume you have the actual contents of a correctly created one.

To update, I have re-installed PopOS 18.04 on this machine to clear out any packages I had installed previously, and am trying to use the SDK-manager again to see if it will install correctly

Tried the SDKManager again, it completed installing the OS image this time, but upon boot, the device displayed the Nvidia Logo for about 10 seconds, then displayed the error codes i started this topic with again.

Ill link the logs so that you can look into them if they would be helpful

I will try again using the command line install I found before using the command found here:

https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/1058463/jetson-nano/cannot-flash-jetsonnano-with-sdk-manager/post/5367692/#5367692

Still gets the same errors. I do not have a Serial to USB device, so I’ll have to acquire that.

@WayneWWW what do you suggest I do to help solve this issue?

We didn’t meet this error before.
“cp: not writing through dangling symlink ‘etc/resolv.conf’”

I wonder if PopOS is the one causing problem. How about using the pure ubntu 18.04 to flash?

You could also bypass the configuration wizard by using this script
https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/1054926/jetson-nano/jetson-nano-all-usb-ports-suddenly-stopped-working/post/5356153/#5356153

There is a folder “Linux_for_Tegra” after first sdkmanager flash. Please go that directory and run flash script.

You could refer to L4T document from our download center for usage.

From what you showed there shouldn’t be a dangling symlink during runtime. If the error occurs during flash unpacking the sample rootfs, then I could see this being an issue on some flavors of Linux, but not on Ubuntu. Being able to unpack the sample rootfs has some requirements which several Linux distributions meet by default, but some others may for example have a different default alias for various commands. Even so this shouldn’t matter since a filesystem is being unpacked and not created via a “ln -s” command.

SDK Manager itself has more requirements than the underlying flash software. When you mention “PopOS!”, which I am not familiar with, I am thinking perhaps the dangling sym link error is occurring on the host as a result of the “etc/resolv.conf” dangling until the rootfs is mounted on “/” (but this will never be mounted on “/” of the host PC). If some error occurs in writing a filesystem from a host PC, then the error might still exist during boot on the Nano (e.g., incorrect permissions, but this does not seem to be the case).

With an Ubuntu host PC the install should not have any issues, and perhaps the PopOS! won’t have issues, don’t know. I doubt the host is involved in this, but I wanted to mention it.

In order to further debug this most likely you’ll have to have the serial USB cable. Not being able to see the full boot log will make this very difficult.

As a note, normally the resolv.conf has some default (and your resolv.conf is valid as a default), but the DHCP server might cause this to need additional update. You might try booting without any networking, and thus prevent DHCP from being visible, and compare to booting with wired ethernet and a valid DHCP server (a router connected).

Thank you all for your patience, as an update I installed a clean instance of Ubuntu 18.04 on this machine,tried using the SDK manager, and get the same errors still. I will see if microcenter does not have a serial USB cable I can utilize to get a readout of whats going on.

Alright, thank you all, I have the cable and have got a readout for boot, as shown below:

Hopefully that can help us get to the bottom of this.

Looks like it hangs with the GPU software immediately upon loading the kernel. Not even the echo of kernel command line shows up, which is unusual. I can’t personally nail it down any closer, but it appears that either the Image being loaded has issues, or the SD card from which the Image is being loaded has issues.

Is there any chance you have a different micro-SD card (best if different brand) to test? There are a lot of SD cards which don’t always seem to work well for boot even if they work for data.

I don’t have another SD card at the moment sadly, and it would take a few weeks for me to get one.

I will note that this exact SD card was what the machine was using to boot for the last year on an older version of jetpack, can’t remember which version other than it was the intial SD card image whenever we received our pre-order unit.

I don’t have access to the machine at the moment but I’ll update the thread when I can see what manufacturer of SD card im using.

If you can test what happens by putting an older release on it again, at least temporarily, that too would be useful information.

@linuxdev @ WayneWWW I have the SD card in my hands, it is a MicroCenter branded Class 10 32GB micro SD card. I have a 64GB Sandisk Class 10 on me as well, though I would like to avoid having to wipe the contents of that drive. I will be installing JP 4.2 on the MicroCenter SD Card to see if I can’t get it to boot.

What an anti-climatic ending.

Used etcher to install jetpack 4.2.1 on the SanDisk SDHC card. Worked perfectly, currently typing this post on the jetson nano.

My guess is that during the inital flashing of JP 4.2.1 on the original MicroCenter brand SD card, it somehow got bricked. Ah well, I finally have a working device which is what maters most.

We should take away from this that you need to be very careful using the SDKManager to flash the jetson nano, as that is what I can summize bricked the card. Furthermore, I would probably stick away from off brand SD cards, purely for consistencies sake.

Thanks @linuxdev and @WayneWWW for the help in debugging. I’ll go ahead and mark this as the answer to this topic.

Hi mbarbou1,

Did you bypass the password configuration by using the tool from #11? Is this log under such case?
