img-ourbox-tinderbox\n\nOffline, command-line provisioning for **Jetson Orin NX (8GB / 16GB)** modules (“tinderbox”).\n\nGoal for this repo (phase 0):\n- Flash **Jetson Linux / JetPack base** onto the **OS NVMe** (boot-from-NVMe).\n- On first boot, automatically set up the **DATA NVMe** and mount it at `/data`.\n- Print a loud **Hello World** on the serial/console logs so you can prove it’s alive.\n\n## What this is (and is not)\n\n- ✅ **CLI-only**, no SDK Manager GUI.\n- ✅ Designed for **airgapped / offline** use *after* you run `./tools/prepare-installer-media.sh`.\n- ✅ **Fail-fast**: refuses to flash anything except **Jetson Orin NX 8GB/16GB** in Force Recovery.\n- ❌ Not trying to support Xavier, Nano, Thor, emmc, etc. Not in scope.\n\n## Supported hardware (locked down)\n\n- Jetson **Orin NX 16GB** (Force Recovery `lsusb` id `0955:7323`)\n- Jetson **Orin NX 8GB**  (Force Recovery `lsusb` id `0955:7423`)\n\nThis repo targets the NVIDIA reference configuration used by the Jetson Linux docs:\n`jetson-orin-nano-devkit` board config (works for Orin NX modules on the reference Orin Nano / Orin NX carrier).\n\n## Quickstart\n\n### 0) Clone\n\n```bash\ngit clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/techofourown/img-ourbox-tinderbox.git\ncd img-ourbox-tinderbox\n```\n\n### 1) Fetch NVIDIA artifacts (one-time, online step)\n\nThe NVIDIA Jetson Linux artifacts are **not stored in git**.\n\nThis is the **only** step that requires internet access.\n\n```bash\n./tools/fetch-nvidia-artifacts.sh\n```\n\nThat script will:\n- show the NVIDIA release + license URLs\n- ask you to confirm you accept NVIDIA’s terms\n- download the tarballs into `artifacts/nvidia/`\n\nIf you prefer to place files manually, the required filenames are:\n\n```\nartifacts/nvidia/\n  Jetson_Linux_R36.5.0_aarch64.tbz2\n  Tegra_Linux_Sample-Root-Filesystem_R36.5.0_aarch64.tbz2\n```\n\n### 2) Prepare installer USB (on a Linux x86_64 host)\n\nThis will **erase** the selected USB drive and write a self-contained offline flasher onto it.\n\n```bash\nsudo ./tools/prepare-installer-media.sh\n```\n\nIf the NVIDIA artifacts are missing, `prepare-installer-media.sh` will offer to download them for you.\n\nWhen it finishes, you’ll have a USB drive labeled `TINDERBOX_INSTALLER`.\n\n### 3) Flash a Jetson (offline / airgapped)\n\nOn your *airgapped* flashing host:\n\n1) Put the Jetson into **Force Recovery Mode**\n2) Connect Jetson to the host over USB\n3) Plug in the prepared `TINDERBOX_INSTALLER` USB drive\n4) Run:\n\n```bash\ncd /media/$USER/TINDERBOX_INSTALLER/tinderbox\nsudo ./flash-jetson.sh\n```\n\nThe script will prompt you for which NVMe should be the OS drive (`nvme0n1` vs `nvme1n1`) and will refuse to run if the Jetson is not an Orin NX 8GB/16GB.\n\n### 4) Boot from NVMe\n\nAfter flashing completes:\n- power-cycle the Jetson\n- it should boot from the OS NVMe\n- you should see a **Hello Tinderbox** message in the console/journal\n- the second NVMe should be mounted at `/data` (auto-created on first boot)\n\n## Configuration knobs\n\nEdit `config/defaults.env` before preparing the installer USB if you want to change:\n- default username/password/hostname\n- which NVMe is assumed to be OS vs DATA (defaults: OS=nvme0n1, DATA=nvme1n1)\n\n## Shared selection seam\n\nTinderbox is intentionally **not** part of the first Matchbox/Woodbox shared installer-selection\nresolver migration.\n\nWhy:\n\n- today it is a host-side Jetson flasher, not a catalog-driven registry installer\n- its hard parts are NVIDIA Force Recovery, initrd diagnostics, BSP/rootfs staging, and offline USB media\n\nWhat still applies:\n\n- `sw-ourbox-os` remains the upstream owner of install-defaults and the installer-selection contract\n- `install-defaults/defaults/tinderbox.env` exists upstream as the future control-plane profile for\n  a Tinderbox payload-selection lane\n\nWhen Tinderbox grows that lane, it should adopt the upstream shared installer-selection contract and\nreference resolver. Until then, its flashing flow remains hardware-specific by design.\n\n## Repo layout\n\n- `tools/fetch-nvidia-artifacts.sh` — downloads NVIDIA artifacts (online step; requires license acceptance)\n- `tools/prepare-installer-media.sh` — builds the offline installer USB\n- `media/flash-jetson.sh` — copied onto the USB; flashes the Jetson via Linux_for_Tegra initrd flash\n- `rootfs-overlay/` — files injected into the Jetson rootfs\n  - `ourbox-hello.service` prints hello world every boot\n  - `ourbox-firstboot.service` sets up the DATA NVMe on first boot\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Ftechofourown%2Fimg-ourbox-tinderbox","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Ftechofourown%2Fimg-ourbox-tinderbox","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Ftechofourown%2Fimg-ourbox-tinderbox/lists"}
