Known Issues#

  • Some SDK components can have conflicts that cause an installation error when another release is already installed. If this occurs, uninstall the previously installed SDK, then install the new version.

  • If the CUDA installation fails, run sudo apt purge for all installed CUDA and nvcc related packages, then run SDK Manager again.

  • DOCA users: At the end of the install session, if you have a Controller / Converged Accelerator, or use remote install, you will need to manually power cycle the host where the device is attached.

  • When installing the DRIVE SDK using the SDK Manager Docker image, flashing the target may fail if ADB is running on the host machine. Make sure to stop the ADB before flashing, using the following command on your host machine:

    sudo killall adb

  • SDK Manager supports installation on Network File System (NFS) with ext4 type. Installations on NFS with other filesystem types are not supported, and may result in errors.

Jetson Users

  • When installing JetPack SDK using the SDK Manager Docker image, you should first install qemu-user-static and binfmt-support on your host machine, then run the following command on your host machine:

    sudo update-binfmts --enable

    Without these steps, you will get the following error during installation from the File System and OS component:

    'dpkg': Exec format error

  • When flashing JetPack 4.x, ensure that no more than one target hardware is in recovery mode.

  • When installing Jetson SDK components on multiple Jetson boards at once, all active boards must be connected to the Internet using an Ethernet cable.

  • When flashing to a USB flash drive on Jetson Developer Kits for Orin and Xavier modules, a minimum of 256GB space is required on the flash drive.

Holoscan Users

When flashing IGX Orin Developer Kits, sometimes SDK Manager fails with the following error:

timeout in USB write

To resolve this issue, switch the USB cable, use a different USB port, or reboot the device.
