For best results, you should read through the official NVIDIA documentation found on:

https://developer.nvidia.com/linux-tegra-rel-21

In particular, the Quick Start Guide.

For this process you will need:

• A host desktop or laptop computer running Ubuntu Linux 12.04 is officially recommended. In practice, this may be a virtual machine, I have used VirtualBox in the past. Also, I've successfully flashed from Ubuntu Linux 14.04. Your mileage may vary.
• Micro USB cable provided with the Jetson TK1 kit
• Jetson TK1 and power supply

For this process you will need:

• A host desktop or laptop computer running Ubuntu Linux 12.04. This may be a VM, I've used VirtualBox.
• Micro USB cable provided with the Jetson TK1 kit
• Jetson TK1 and power supply
• Optional: DB9 null modem cable if you want to use the serial console during boot

0. On your host computer open a Terminal, then create a directory to operate from, and switch to it. As an example:

mkdir ~/Grinch
cd ~/Grinch
