Hello,
I received a new Orin 64 GB development kit. I am trying to get through the initial headless configuration using a Ubuntu 22.04 host.
When I connect using the screen command (I also tried minicom), I get a blank unresponsive screen. I don’t have a Displayport monitor handy. Is there anything I can do to get the unit up and running?
Thanks,
Mike
Hello
Since you don’t have a monitor, you don’t want to run oem-config to set up your system.
A solution could be run the host script l4t_create_default_user.sh, the script creates a default user, and thus prevents oem‑config from running.
Example
cd Linux_for_Tegra/tools
# l4t_create_default_user.sh [‑u <user>] [‑p <pswd>] [‑n <host>]
sudo ./l4t_create_default_user.sh -u myuser -p mypass -n my-machine \
--accept-license --autologin

Hi Manuel,
I ran the script on my host, it seemed to succeed. However, I am not able to ssh to the unit. I get a Connection refused error message. If I try to run the sdkmanager to flash the device, I get an error connecting via ssh. If I run the screen or minicom command, the terminal connects but I don’t get any response to hitting return, etc. It’s just a dead screen.

ssh: connect to host 192.168.55.1 port 22: Connection refused
Is a programmed microSD card required to boot? I thought the unit came with eMMC preprogrammed?
I am trying to following the instructions from here for setting up the headless unit.
I note that when I power on, the fan does not turn on. When the USB-C device enumerates on my device, I get the following messages from dmesg (below). I am noting that the /dev/sda device is read only, and there isn’t a /dev/sda1 to mount or update (I think the scripts look for that to flash using that path).
Am I missing something? I am sort of dead in the water.

I ended up going and buying a monitor. The headless installation instructions definitely do not work for overriding the oem-config steps. Once I did the initial config, the jetpack upgrade, etc., worked fine.
