Jetson Nano Developer Kit DA_09402_004 | 10
INITIAL CONFIGURATION UPON FIRST BOOT
Whether you use the SD Card image or use SDK Manager to flash your developer kit,
upon first boot it will prompt you for initial configuration information like keyboard
layout, username and password, etc.
Headless initial configuration
If no display is attached to the developer kit during first boot, the initial configuration
process is “headless.” That is, you must communicate with the developer kit through a
serial application on the host computer (e.g., puTTY) connected via a host serial port and
the developer kit’s Micro-USB port.
Note
Headless initial configuration requires that the developer kit not be
powered by a Micro-USB power supply, since the Micro-USB port is
needed to access the initial configuration prompts.
