Hi all,
I’m trying to flash a Jetson TK1 board using L4t R21.5, but the flashing process consistently fails with the following error:
bootloader downloaded successfully
ML execution and Cpu Handover took 1 Secs
Partition backup took 0 Secs
setting device: 2 3
deleting device partitions
creating partition: BCT
creating partition: PPT
creating partition: PT
creating partition: EBT
creating partition: LNX
creating partition: SOS
creating partition: NVC
creating partition: MPB
creating partition: MBP
creating partition: GP1
unable to do create partition
command failure/warning: create failed (bad data)
bootloader status: fatal failure to read / write to mass storage (code: 9) message: nverror:0xa000e (0xa000e) Nv3pGetDeviceInfo 793 flags: 0
On the serial debug output, it always stops at:
SD Alloc Partid=10, start sector=11776, num=1536
SD Alloc Partid=11, start sector=13312, num=512
CreatePartition failed. NvError 655374 NvStatus 9
I’m wondering:
- Is this a known issue with the Jetson TK1 or its flashing tools?
- Could this indicate that the eMMC on the board is corrupted or failing?
- Any known workarounds or suggestions to further debug or recover?
I’ve attached the full serial output below for reference.
Any help would be appreciated!
