Jetson Xavier AGX Flash to NVMe SSD resize

[Kptn_Kinday]

After adding Crucial 2To SSD to my Jetson Xavier AGX I flashed it with JetPack 5.1.2 using the 2.0 SDK Manager by selecting the pre-config and nvme options and the root file system stayed at 30Go.

I reflashed it using the resume option but the Ubuntu prompt didn’t proposed to define the partition size.

I tried to find nvsdkmanager_flash.sh in the ~/nvidia/nvidia_sdk//Linux_for_Tegra/ directory and replace flash_l4t_t194_nvme.xml with flash_l4t_external.xml without any success.

I modified the size specified in the flash_l4t_external.xml for the Disk and the APP using the formula : total bites - 30go for other partitions / 512 and launched a flash still without success.

Is there anything else to try ? I really need to add this SSD as the root file system.

This only affects the customer who is using SDKM to flash device on T194 device. For customers who use initrd flash to flash device, there is no effect. For the customers who want to extend the size of APP partition on external device for T194 device, here is the workaround: Flashed the devi…
