Jetson/TX2 DTB
Starting on Jetson TX2, the Device Tree Binary (DTB) is no longer specified by default in /boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf. This is to allow u-boot to pass parameter to load the specific DTB file. However if you have compiled your own DTB, there are ways to set it yourself.
Modifying the Existing extlinux.conf
Although L4T by default no longer sets the FDT entry in extlinux.conf, users can still manually set this for the change to take effect. Note the DTB field added back into /boot/etxlinux/extlinux.conf below:
