I am attempting to flash a TX2i with L4T 32.3.1. However, I am receiving the following error when flashing to a custom carrier board:

My TX2i is a 900- series part.

I need a patch for TX2i for PCN208460. https://developer.nvidia.com/assets/embedded/secure/jetson/tx2/docs/jetson_tx2i_pcn208460_bom_addition_of_dram.pdf

Said patch is not available on L4T 32.3.1.

Upgrading to a newer Jetpack version is unfortunately not an option.

Thank you.

Yes, we don’t have the path for L4T 32.3.1 as it’s almost a 4 years ago release.
We can only suggesto to upgrade to knew one to get the support.
Sorry for that.

I was under the impression that the TX2i benefited from extended support when compared to the TX2 counterparts.

PCN209140 for the TX2 has a patch for 32.3.1, released in November of 2022- https://developer.nvidia.com/jetson-tx2-pcn209140-addition-manufacturing-bom-components-hynix-dram

I’d argue that it is not unreasonable to expect similar software support for the industrial counterpart, considering the cost delta and that PCN208460 was released in May of 2022.
