Hello Elias,

Building Torizon for the Jetson Orin Nano Dev Kit using Yocto is indeed a valid approach, though it can be complex. Here are some steps and considerations to help you proceed:

  1. Compatibility Check: Ensure that the layers and configurations you are using are compatible with the Jetson Orin Nano. It’s crucial to use the correct machine configuration for your device.

  2. Manifest and Layers: Use the recommended manifest file, typically torizon/default.xml, from the Toradex manifest repository. This ensures a stable and tested configuration.

  3. TorizonCore Builder: Consider using the TorizonCore Builder tool for customization. This tool allows you to modify Torizon OS images without directly dealing with Yocto, potentially simplifying the process.

  4. Troubleshooting Build Errors:

    • Logs: Carefully examine the build logs to identify specific errors. They can provide clues about missing dependencies or configuration issues.
    • Dependencies: Ensure all required dependencies are installed on your build host, as missing packages can cause build failures.
    • Environment: Verify that your build environment matches the requirements specified by Toradex, including the correct versions of tools and libraries.

  5. Alternative Approaches: If build errors persist, consider using a Docker container for the build process. This can provide a more controlled environment that matches the expected setup.

By following these steps, you should be able to address the build issues and successfully create a Torizon image for your Jetson Orin Nano. Best of luck with your build process!
