The flashing went smooth w/o errors. The Jetson now powers up giving me the newly created apsync user to logon on the start screen.
However I cannot logon to the Jetson anymore. Regardless if I try the newly created apsync user or the existing nvidia or ubuntu users on my TX2, the logon fails with a pop up “System program problem detected” and gets back to the logon screen.
The startup sequence gives the following errors: https://youtu.be/H9uINh-d0qM
Just extract the archive and rename the extracted apsync-tx2-201804270923.img.raw to system.img and replace the existing file in your Jetpack directory “…/64_TX2/Linux_for_Tegra_64_tx2/bootloader/system.img” and flash the image.
The size of the extracted file is just above 28 GB!
Alternatively, you can login to TX2 using Secureshell (ssh) by simply connecting your TX2 and a laptop to same network. APSync provides a better alternative, it creates a wi-fi hotspot at startup with SSID: ardupilot and password: ardupilot. You can connect to this hotspot and launch the Ardupilot webserver in any browser via. http://10.0.1.128.
Once you’re connected to the hotspot you can access the files on your TX2 using SSH. The home folder consists the configuration and startup files for the webserver and other services.
Command:ssh apsync@apsync / ssh apsync@10.0.1.128
Password for ssh login: apsync (same as username and applies for the users nvidia and ubuntu too.
Thanks for your feedback!
I used the latest Apsync version as of July 30, 2018 which basically corrupted my Ubuntu image on the TX2. There is no network, so no possibility to ssh in from another computer.
Before I re-image my Jetson and try the Apsync version you used, could you let me know the Jetpack release you are on?
I have Jetpack 3.3 installed and had believed that the April 2018 Apsync version is for Jetpack 3.2 only.
