Once the update is done, it reboots and tries to boot, however it will get stuck **UNLESS you change the SD card which has JetPack 6.x**.
Once the update is done, it reboots and tries to boot, however it will get stuck **UNLESS you change the SD card to JetPack 6.x one**.
Therefore you should just power off the developer kit simply by disconnecting the DC power supply.

!!! danger "Attention"

This part may look very confusing as neither the attached monitor nor the debug UART shows any explicit message on what action to take next.

What is going on here is that the Jetson's firmware (inside the QSPI-NOR flash memory) is now updated, ready for the JetPack 6 SD card, however it is now incompatible with JetPack 5.1.3 SD card left in the Jetson module's slot, so after the reboot it gets stuck in the boot process.

So there is no issue with this boot halt (or endless rebooting). <br>
Simply power off the device and insert the new SD card.
