today, i tried to flash another one of my jetson modules with balena, but both the dashboard as balena scan cannot find the module.
i currently have a jetson-nano with emmc memory flashed and connected to the dashboard, while the new module is a jetson-nano-sd with an sd card.
i also flashed a jetson-nano-sd before (i deleted the device) and it worked fine.
if you can’t find your second nano using either the dashboard or a balena scan are you sure it has a working network connection? Can you find it using your router network tools? Possible causes could be no network connection, or failing to boot in general. Can I ask:
which model nano are you using? We support the A02 and B01 models, but our support for the Nano 2Gb is not yet released.
Hey @jap937, so how did you flash the SD card? Did you validate that flashing was successful? (balena Etcher offers this feature)
It’d be good to try out a different SD card (that you know functioning fine) to rule out SD card rooted issues.
Next, is it possible to connect the device to an external monitor?
As you are using a .dev image, you’d see the device printing logs. There could be a warning or error explaining the issue here.
i am flashing with balena etcher and currently attempting an older image version and different sd card (16Gb). There is no apparent difference.
The monitor shows the balena logo as usual.
i entered the terminal (ctrl+alt+F4) and when plugging in the network cable, i get the message “eth0: link up” and ifconfig shows no errors except for the lack of inet address.
i do consider the possibility that our network is acting weird
thanks for the help,
it seems to be a hardware specific as only one of my 3 devkits (same versions) seems to connect to the network
dmesg shows nothing relevant
