I had to reflash my Jetson Orin AGX developer kit, and I followed the instructions in the software setup linked below. However, this is clearly not the same configuration that ships with the Orin. The first issue I found is Firefox is not loaded, and if I select to install chromium the app crashes when I try to open it.
I have not tried to troubleshoot those issues as I would prefer to be able to restore the device its OEM state, and start from there.
Are there directions for doing that?

This command will reinstall the NVIDIA JetPack software package, which includes the original software packages that shipped with the device.
-
Reinstall Firefox or Chromium: If you want to reinstall Firefox or Chromium, you can do so by running the following commands:

Additional information:
The Jetson AGX Orin Developer Kit is a development platform, and it’s not intended for production use. If you’re using the device for production purposes, you should consider using a production-ready module, such as the Jetson AGX Orin module.

sudo snap install firefox
and/or from Software Setup orin document follow the steps under the heading
(2) Use SDK Manager to Install JetPack Components
steps 1, 2, 3, and 4.
Unfortunately, that doesn’t work. Or at least not without a workaround. In order to install a functioning version of firefox or chromium, you have to roll back snap to a prior version. It also looks like using the SDK Manager installs applications that were not on the OEM install of ubuntu. I don’t know for sure, but there may be some dependencies that are updated as well, so just removing them causes other issues.
With limited space to work with, it would be nice to be able to do a factory reflash.
Hi,
It’s recommended to install the SDK Manager and flash your device.
Thanks
