Hello,

I don’t have any SD card for my jetson nano. Can I use pen drive for flashing SD card image instead of getting SD Card.

Unfortunately that isn’t possible.Jetsons don’t have an actual BIOS, they have the equivalent, and that software is not set up to be able to boot directly from a USB drive without an SD card.
