I recently got a new Nvidia Jetson TX2, and I was a little nervous, after all, it wasn't my own, and my hands were shaking :).
Take a look out of the box, it's called a tall one (for a poor guy like me), and it comes with a pair of antennas, a power supply, a usb cable and an adapter cable. To be honest, the whole board only has a usb interface, which is not enough at all. I also removed a hub port from my computer and plugged it in with the mouse and keyboard.
Pay attention to the power supply, the original ground wire of the power supply is very thick, so I took a classmate and rubbed a socket to transfer the interface, all kinds of feeling of lack - -.
It is reasonable to start with ubuntu 16.04 pre-installed, but they are all command lines, which look very refreshing, but they are not easy to use, so you can enter the NIVIDA_INSTALLER directory through the command line to install the graphical interface

cd ~/NIVIDA_INSTALLER
sudo ./installer.sh
These reasons can be seen on the command line. The fan does not turn. If you want to test the fan, you can execute jetson_clock.sh, just say it casually, and the next chapter will introduce flashing and installing cuda.
