Jetson nano freezing at Nvidia logo screen

Hi,
I was trying to partition my Jetson nano sd card coz it was showing me 14gb only but in reality it was 128gb. I made something wrong in terminal and Jetson nano is not working anymore. It is freezing in Nvidia Logo screen. I tried system reset by connecting pins 5 and 6 but it didn’t work out. Can you tell how can I fix my Jetson nano completely. Pls mention the whole process.

Hi,

This topic will get better exposure in the Jetson forums. I have moved it over for you.

hi how can I see that thread ?

Hi shirshak.pattnaik81,

Are you using the devkit or custom baord?
Are you using standalone Ubuntu 18.04 as your host PC?

If you use the devkit from NVIDIA and standalone Ubuntu 18.04.
You could refer to the following instruction to re-flash the board with SDK Manager.
Install Jetson Software with SDK Manager :: NVIDIA SDK Manager Documentation

Hi Kevin,

I am using devkit b01 board but I don’t have a Ubuntu 18.04 host pc. What shall I do

Please help to get a Ubuntu18.04 PC or create dual boot on your current host PC first. Ubuntu 18.04 is really important to develop Jetson no matter using SDKM or flash script for your devkit.

What did you make to cause the board not working?

I was using 128gb sd card but in Jetson it showed me 14gb. I tried to play with partitions and then I ended up like this ?

Can we do it in Ubuntu 18.04 VM ( Virtual Machine) ?

You need to clean up the SD card and format it as ext4 first.

If you really do not have a standalone Ubuntu, you could try to use VM. Please make sure the VM could recognize the board during flash through USB.

Hi Kevin, when I try to use to nvidia SDK to flash the Jetson nano in recovery mode…it is getting stuck at 99%.

Could you help to provide the flash log for further check?

There is a “export logs” button on sdkmanager. I would suggest to use that one and attach the full file here.

It is not a good idea to copy past some large log file directly to forum.
No need to mention the log you pasted didn’t include the error part…

Hi Kevin,
Please look at this

Is this still from a ubuntu VM?

yes wayne.

Could you find a native ubuntu host? The flash process seems got stuck in the beginning.

oracle vm

should we use ubuntu in host pc ?

Yes, please get a non-VM ubuntu 18.04 on your x86_64 host PC.
