Jetson AGX Xavier Developer Kit

This page covers flashing a Jetson AGX Xavier Developer Kit with LmP artifacts.

Preparation

  1. In your Factory, click on the latest platform build.

  2. Expand the run for jetson-agx-xavier-devkit. Find and download lmp-factory-image-jetson-agx-xavier-devkit.tegraflash.tar.gz.

  3. Unzip the downloaded file:

    tar -xvf lmp-factory-image-jetson-agx-xavier-devkit.tegraflash.tar.gz

The script used for flashing is doflash.sh.

Hardware Preparation

Set the board to boot into recovery mode:

  1. Connect the USB cable in the base board Type-C connector (J512) to the host machine.

  2. While holding down the force recovery button, either press the Reset button (if already powered), or the Power button, Releasing both buttons.

    To check if the board is in recovery mode, lsusb can be used. Check if a device from vendor 0955 (NVIDIA) is available:

    host:~$ lsusb | grep 0955
Bus 001 Device 013: ID 0955:7019 NVIDIA Corp. APX

    This device is only available when the board successfully boots in recovery mode.

  3. OPTIONAL: For UART output, connect a USB cable in the base board USB Micro B connector (J501) to the host machine.

Flashing

  1. With the board powered in recovery mode, flash the board:

    sudo ./doflash.sh

    This can take a few minutes to complete. The process can be watched from the host console or UART output.

  2. Once the flashing procedure finishes, reset the board to boot the installed LmP image.
