JetPack SDK Setup#
NVIDIA JetPack SDK includes Jetson Linux plus accelerated libraries and developer tools such as CUDA, cuDNN, TensorRT, VPI, multimedia APIs, and container runtime support.
If you boot from the official Jetson Orin Nano Developer Kit SD card image, the base system is already installed. You can install or update JetPack components from the package repositories after first boot.
Install via apt#
On the Jetson developer kit, update the package index and install JetPack components:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install nvidia-jetpack
Reboot after installation if prompted.
Check the JetPack Release#
To check the installed Jetson Linux release:
cat /etc/nv_tegra_release
To list installed NVIDIA JetPack packages:
apt list --installed | grep nvidia-jetpack
Install via SDK Manager#
You can also use NVIDIA SDK Manager from an Ubuntu host PC to install JetPack components on a running developer kit.
Launch SDK Manager.
Select Jetson as the product category.
Select the Jetson Orin Nano target hardware.
In the target components list, choose the Jetson SDK components you want to install.
Provide the login credentials and network information for the running developer kit when prompted.
For the full SDK Manager workflow, see the NVIDIA SDK Manager documentation.
