Jetson Orin Nano boot alternatives to SSD

I’d like to use the M.2 Key M slot on my A603 carrier board for something other than an SSD. Was thinking of trying to get a USB SSD to boot off of instead. Is this feasible? If so, does anyone know of any good guides for doing so? (Is the process significantly different?) I’ve never done anything like this before.

Thank you!

Hi,

you mean something like an SSD enclosure?
Then the process should be similar to the one shown in our developer guide:

sudo ./tools/kernel_flash/l4t_initrd_flash.sh --external-device sda1 \
  -c tools/kernel_flash/flash_l4t_external.xml -p "-c bootloader/t186ref/cfg/flash_t234_qspi.xml" \
  --showlogs --network usb0 jetson-orin-nano-devkit internal

But remember to contact the vendor for the correct BSP.
