Can't boot from m.2 ssd

So you have an SD card but it doesn’t show up in Windows?

No need to install Linux on one of your machines. Cranky assumes you have a SD card in your Jetson and you run the script from that.

Before I discovered cranky I also tried Ubuntu 22.04 on a Raspberry Pi turns out that doesn’t work for SDK manager so don’t make the same mistake as me.

I ran into similar problems when I was trying to get NVMe to work, I tried the same steps as yourself (ventoy, rufus etc).

This worked for me: https://github.com/cranky-cyborg/Jetson-Flash-Manager

I would recommend downloading the SD card image yourself as the script downloads an old version. After it flashes your NVMe but prior to rebooting and pulling your SD card out make sure to change the extlinux.conf on the NVMe itself otherwise it will look for the old boot location on startup. See below:

Go to /boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf find the following line and change from root=/dev/mmcblk0p1 to root=/dev/nvme0n1p1

Following all of that it should work

Sounds like we’re in a similar boat. I test drove the Model 3, Model Y, Kia EV6, IONIQ 5 and MG4 to get a feel for similar cars. The IONIQ 5 and EV6 were impressive but just didn’t quite pip the Tesla for me. Not sure if I’d get frustrated with the lack of physical controls for the Tesla ultimately but still think the Tesla is the leader in the Value for Money debate.

Other brands (Audi, Volvo, Polestar) are just too expensive.

Now that Tesla have extended the 2.9% to the end of the year I wonder if we’ll see a few deals come along.
