OEM configuration window via serial port not displaying

After successfully flashing the Jetson Orin EVB with 64GB RAM and JetPack 6.2, I attempted to access the device in headless mode using tools like Screen, Minicom, and Putty. However, the boot process stalled, and the OEM configuration window failed to display, as shown in the attached image. The issue persisted until I connected a DisplayPort cable to a monitor, restarted the device, and allowed it to complete the boot process.

I want the boot process to function correctly without requiring a monitor connection, allowing access solely through the serial port.

thanks

If you run this and then flash the device I believe it takes care of oem config.

cd nvidia_sdk/JetPack_6.2_Linux_JETSON_AGX_ORIN_TARGETS/Linux_for_Tegra/

sudo tools/l4t_create_default_user.sh --help
-u | --username - If not specified then default will be set to ‘nvidia’.
-p | --password - If not set then randomized password will be generated.
-a | --autologin - If specified autologin will be enabled. Default is disabled
-n | --hostname - If not specified then default will be set to ‘tegra-ubuntu’.
-h | --help - print usage
–accept-license - Specified to accept the terms and conditions of EULA


for example:
sudo ./tools/l4t_create_default_user.sh -u scott -p notmypassword -n agxorin --accept-license

Creating: Username - scott, Password - notmypassword, Autologin - false
Adding user scott' to group gdm’ …
Adding user scott to group gdm
Done.
Adding user gdm' to group video’ …
Adding user gdm to group video
Done.
Creating: Hostname - agxorin

It modifies ./rootfs adding rootfs/home/scott and

rootfs/etc

-rw-r–r-- 1 root root 8 Apr 10 17:01 hostname

Then run flash or sdkmanager.

Hi gavriela1,

Plesae refer to Skipping oem-config to configure them before flash.
It should help for your use case.
