I use a ubuntu 22 host as requested, but flashing fails with the message in the end of the post (sorry I can’t post the complete output here due to forum restrictions, can’t either upload a .zip file). I’d be glad if someone could guide me on how to fix the error. Thanks in advance.

Flash failure
Either the device cannot mount the NFS server on the host or a flash command has failed. Debug log saved to /tmp/tmp.vfbsVelX1C. You can access the target’s terminal through “sshpass -p root ssh root@fc00:1:1:0::2”
Cleaning up…
Installed the following packages as mentioned in the guide: sudo apt install qemu-user-static sshpass abootimg nfs-kernel-server libxml2-utils binutils -y
I have opened the NFS ports in the firewall.
Tried multiple SSDs. Ran the flashing script as a root user. But these things have not fixed the issue.
Please take a look at this flash log pasted at: Ubuntu Pastebin
There isn’t much help available on this issue. People with the reServer have tried Method 2 with older JetPack. But I need to install the JetPack 6.
@cwiede – I just installed JetPack 6.1 using the nvidia sdk manager gui too!
The only hiccup was that wifi still didn’t work on my J4012 carrier board, so I plugged in ethernet in order to finish the SDK manager installation (had to figure out the right ip address and how to bridge through my laptop), and I also ran sudo apt install -y iwlwifi-modules (I may have had to run sudo modprobe iwlwifi to avoid rebooting, can’t remember).
@cwiede@than Please install listed JetPack versions on the wiki page by the instructions strictly. Install other versions with NVIDIA SDK Manager directly might cause some compatibility issues.
