APEX ORIN NX II LTS DEB Package Update#

This function is supported starting with version 5.1.1-2.2.0.xx.

Prerequisites#

1 Obtain all DEB packages required for the update (all packages under deb-ota/). 1 Copy the DEB packages to the same directory on the device, for example /home/nvidia/.

Installation#

#Open a terminal and use cd to enter the directory containing the DEB files, for example: cd /home/nvidia/

#Install the miivii-l4t-core DEB package and resolve dependencies automatically
sudo apt install ./miivii-l4t-core-*.deb -y

#Remove the miivii-l4t-core DEB package file
rm miivii-l4t-core-*.deb

#Install the other DEB packages
sudo dpkg -i --force-overwrite *.deb

#Restart the device
sudo reboot

After these commands are run, the system automatically completes the update in approximately 8 minutes.

During the update, the system restarts automatically and displays an Update Progress bar.

The update is complete when the Ubuntu login screen appears.
