Need to initialized the Jetson AGX Orin host machine

I accidentally update partially Ubuntu version. After reboot, the host machine did not work (back screen). I can confirm via lsusb from external machine.

Then can I force recovery with run command
“sudo reboot --force forced-recovery” via remote mac machine to Jetson AGX Orin host machine?

Hi,
If the device cannot be flashed/booted, please refer to the page to get uart log from the device:
Jetson/General debug - eLinux.org
And get logs of host PC and Jetson device for reference. If you are using custom board, you can compare uart log of developer kit and custom board to get more information.
Also please check FAQs:
Jetson AGX Orin FAQ
If possible, we would suggest follow quick start in developer guide to re-flash the system:
Quick Start — NVIDIA Jetson Linux Developer Guide 1 documentation
And see if the issue still persists on a clean-flashed system.
Thanks!

I have software update at Jetson AGX ORIN (Ubuntu 20.04 OS update to ??). During this process, I partially update (I realized that it should not update it). However after reboot it, the system did not work.

Then I have tried re-flashed system from my Ubuntu 24.04 as your comments and I got error:

I have a time-out error and I need to know the root case.

Hi,

Please follow the doc to check weather your device in recovery mode.

Thanks
