    Description

      The Boot2qt image for the Jetson TX1 uses an MS-DOS boot sector:

      file ~/Qt-test/5.9/Boot2Qt/jetson-tx1/images/b2qt-embedded-qt5-image-jetson-tx1.img
      /home/kakoehne/Qt-test/5.9/Boot2Qt/jetson-tx1/images/b2qt-embedded-qt5-image-jetson-tx1.img: DOS/MBR boot sector
      

      This does not work with the boot loader I have on my Jetson TX1.

      Reformatting the sd card with a gpt partition table fixes this

      $ sudo fdisk /dev/mmcblk0
