Based on the provided context, it appears that you are trying to flash the Jetson AGX Orin using the l4t_initrd_flash.sh script, but the process is failing when creating the OS image file system and OS partition.

To troubleshoot this issue, I would recommend checking the following:

  1. Verify the SDK Manager logs: The attached logs file (SDKMlogsJetPack621rev1LinuxforJetsonAGXOrin64GB20251008105022zip) may contain error messages or clues about the failure. Check the logs for any errors related to the OS image creation or partitioning process.
  2. Check the host machine’s configuration: Ensure that the host machine (2404) meets the system requirements for flashing the Jetson AGX Orin. Verify that the host machine has the necessary dependencies, such as the NVIDIA SDK Manager, installed and configured correctly.
  3. Verify the target device’s configuration: Ensure that the Jetson AGX Orin target device is properly configured and connected to the host machine. Check that the device is in recovery mode and that the USB connection is stable.
  4. Check the flash script’s options: Review the options used with the l4t_initrd_flash.sh script. Ensure that the correct options are used for the target device and the desired flash configuration.
  5. Try flashing with a different configuration: If possible, try flashing the device with a different configuration, such as using a different boot media (e.g., SD card instead of NVMe) or a different flash script (e.g., flash.sh instead of l4t_initrd_flash.sh).

Comparing the provided context to the available information, I notice that the l4t_initrd_flash.sh script is used for flashing the Jetson AGX Orin, but the flash.sh script is also mentioned in the context. The flash.sh script is used for flashing the entire device, including the miniUEFI. It’s possible that using the flash.sh script with the correct options might resolve the issue.

To further assist, I would need more information about the specific error messages or logs related to the failure. Additionally, providing more details about the host machine’s configuration and the target device’s configuration might help identify the root cause of the issue.

Hi,

Some questions to confirm:

  • Is your host a virtual or a native machine?
  • Is your AGX Orin a dev kit or a custom board?

Thanks

Native machine with 24.04.

My orin is a dev kit 64GB

I was able to flash at another machine with 22.04.

I guess it’s the issue with ubuntu 24.04

Hi,

Please try another 22.04 machine and use sdk manager to flash again.

Thanks
