Jetson nano recognizes the SD card and starts with SD

Jetson nano识别SD卡并以SD启动

Noted: Step 1-7 run under the host computer. Step 9-15 run under the Jetson nano.

  1. Install the DTC tool
sudo apt-get install -y device-tree-compiler
  1. The cd command enters the resource path and finds the device tree file
cd   nvidia/nvidia_sdk/JetPack_4.6.1_Linux_JETSON_NANO_TARGETS/Linux_for_Tegra/kernel/dtb/
  1. Use the dtc command to decompile the dtb file into a dts file
sudo dtc -I dtb -O dts -o tegra210-p3448-0002-p3449-0000-b00.dts tegra210-p3448-0002-p3449-0000-b00.dtb
  1. Edit the generated dts file, use the gedit command here, you can directly open the file for modification
sudo gedit tegra210-p3448-0002-p3449-0000-b00.dts
  1. Ctrl+F, search keyword: sdhci, find sdhci@700b0400 structure
Line 5771 status = "disabled";
 change to : status = "okay";
Line 5804 mmc-ddr-1_8v;
 add: 
cd-gpios = <0x5b 0xc2 0x0>;
sd-uhs-sdr104;
sd-uhs-sdr50;
sd-uhs-sdr25;
sd-uhs-sdr12;
no-mmc;
and then Save file
  1. Back up the previous dtb file first
sudo cp tegra210-p3448-0002-p3449-0000-b00.dtb tegra210-p3448-0002-p3449-0000-b00-bak.dtb
  1. generate new dtb file
sudo dtc -I dts -O dtb -o tegra210-p3448-0002-p3449-0000-b00.dtb tegra210-p3448-0002-p3449-0000-b00.dts
  1. Reburn
1. use NVIDIA SDK manager to flash
or
2. commond line
sudo ./flash.sh jetson-nano-emmc mmcblk0p1
Subsequent flashes can be added with the -r option
sudo ./flash.sh -r jetson-nano-emmc mmcblk0p1 (Use this if the command line has been burned)
  1. View SD card drive letter
df -h
  1. First use the umount command to unmount the SD card
sudo umount /media/--
  1. Format SD card to ext4 format
sudo mkfs.ext4 /dev/mmcblk1p1
  1. In order to avoid mistakes. Mount the SD card in the mnt directory
sudo mount /dev/mmcblk1p1 /mnt/
  1. Copy nano’s system to SD card
sudo cp -ax / /mnt/
  1. After the copy is complete, unmount the SD card so that the bootable system disk can be switched to the SD card
sudo umount /mntsudo 
vi /boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf  
line 10 : root=/dev/mmcblk0p1  change to root=/dev/mmcblk1p1
  1. reboot
sudo reboot

Hi, Thanks for the post.
I have issues from step 2 to 4
I get an error message that No such file or directory when i run the code for step 2.
could you please explain in detail?
I really need to get my device to boot from my 128 sd card instead of the internal storage of 16gb
Thanks

  1. SDK manager firmware upgrade
  2. SD card boot

Unfortunately that method isn’t working anymore. Were there any changes fpr JetPack 4.6.4?
