Flash Jetson Xavier AGX from docker (sdkmanager)

01-README.md

TESTED for Jetpack 4.5.1

Official docker image had few utilities missed, which caused flashing to fail with Jetson AGX Xavier. To fix that I added them to docker image.

1. Get NVIDIA official docker image.

2. Rebuild docker image

mkdir sdkmanager; cd sdkmanager
# create dockefile from below gist
docker build -t sdkmanager-fixed -f .

# `/opt/sdmanager` will be used for all sdkmanager data.
sudo mkdir /opt/sdkmanager ; sudo chmod 777 /opt/sdkmanager

3. Place sdkmanager (from below) to /usr/local/bin and make it executable with chmod +x /usr/local/bin/sdkmanager.

4. Flash sdkmanager --cli install --logintype devzone --product Jetson --version 4.5.1 --targetos Linux --target P2888-0001 --flash all --datacollection disable --license accept --exitonfinish

Dockerfile

FROM sdkmanager
RUN sudo apt update && sudo apt install -y binutils xxd
ENTRYPOINT [ "/usr/bin/sdkmanager" ]

sdkmanager

#!/bin/bash    
    
docker run -it --rm --privileged --net=host \    
  --volume /dev/bus/usb:/dev/bus/usb \    
  --volume /opt/sdkmanager:/home/nvidia \       
  --name sdkmanager sdkmanager-fixed $@ 

using sdkmanager version 1.9.2.10899-Ubuntu_22.04 as the basis for this, it still doesn't work for me using @VincentSC's process. Am I missing something?

@jbcpollak you're using 1.9.2.*-Ubuntu_22.04, you have to use either 1.9.2.*-Ubuntu_18.04 or 1.9.2.*-Ubuntu_20.04 the target and version you've selected.
