Hello everyone,

We have a lot of devices ( Orin nano nvme, p3509-a02+p3767-0000 ) distributed over the country, we have only small network line to them is it possible ( in theory? ) update 5.1.3 → 6.0.0 over network?

  • ubuntu update ( via apt? )
  • kernel ( via apt? )
  • nvidia libs ( cuda + gstreamer, compile latest manually? )

Or there is official way to do it? I only found via SD card with physical access to device

Hi nox.gias,

Are you using the devkit or custom board for Orin Nano?

Yes, you can perform image-based OTA to update from JP5.1.3(R35.5.0) to JP6.0GA(R36.3.0).
Please refer to Updating Jetson Linux with Image-Based Over-the-Air Update for details.

Are you using SD as rootfs and boot from it? Or you have also connected NVMe SSD on your board?

Hi KevinFFF,

Thank you for answer, I am using custom board from seeed studio which have just NVMe drive ( nothing else )
I have a problems with cloning scripts when board have only NVMe drive , will image-based OTA work with such board?

Image-based OTA should also work on the custom carrier board.
Please just use custom BSP package to generate OTA payload and perform image-based OTA for your board.

Please just use custom BSP package to generate OTA payload

I am relatively new to this topic, could you please clarify what need to do with standard BSP package?

First, please request the custom BSP package of JP6.0GA(R36.3.0) from your vendor(SeeedStudio).

Then, you can refer to the steps in Updating Jetson Linux with Image-Based Over-the-Air Update to generate image-based OTA payload.

Understood, thank you for explanation, seems like they have only MFI package for the moment, will ask for proper BSP
