ORIN NX Jetpack 6.0 install

[RoboMike72]

Is the only way to setup the MIPI driver by installing and compiling on a host computer then copying it to the ORIN? Is there a method that can be done only on the ORIN? I am trying to make an installation script for 4 of them.

Also, after my last install I lost keyboard and mouse control too. Is there a workaround to prevent this? I noticed it in another post too.

We would suggest you to use a host machine for building as it is developed and tested there. Same steps might work on Orin as well. You could try and check.

Did you copy the kernel Image? If so, you have to copy and load the corresponding kernel modules as well to be compatible (Meaning, you have to copy the "kernel" folder as well and follow the similar steps mentioned for loading the modules in "extra" and "updates" folders).

1. Copy images/6.0/rootfs/lib/modules/5.15.136-tegra/kernel from host to /lib/modules/5.15.136-tegra/ on Orin target
2. To enable depmod to scan kernel folder, add an entry 'kernel' in the file /etc/depmod.d/ubuntu.conf
3. Run sudo depmod

Note: For JP6, if the kernel is unmodified, you don't have to copy the Image and load kernel modules. Loading the modules in extra and updates folders are enough.
