Note:
This tutorial assumes:
Follow the steps listed below to power up the Jetson and view its contents.
In order to flash the latest os, clone your current disk on your Jetson, or install the development software from JetPack, the Jetson must be in recovery mode before you begin the JetPack installation process. Follow the proceeding steps to put the Jetson in Force Recovery Mode. I suggest reading the steps before attempting the procedure.
A simple way to check if you have successfully set the Jetson into Force Recovery mode is to have it connected to a monitor. The screen should be black and not boot-up to the login screen.
JetPack is the development kit by Nvidia for the Jetson TK1 (and TX1) that allows you to flash the latest OS and gives you more development tools. In order to install it and read more details about it, follow the steps below.
Read step 3 and keep in mind with what you're attempting to achieve
$ chmod +x JetPack-${VERSION}.run
$ ./JetPack-${VERSION}.run
