Error creating swapfile for tensorflow install (TX1) #24

Closed engineer1982 closed 5 years ago

engineer1982 commented 5 years ago

Hello there.

I am trying to create a swapfile in a usb pendrive 16GB (formated as FAT32). After running the command:

sudo ./createSwapfile.sh -d /media/nvidia/MARCELO -s 8

I get the following errors:

Creating Swapfile at: /media/nvidia/MARCELO Swapfile Size: 8G Automount: N fallocate: fallocate failed: Operation not supported -rwxrwxrwx 1 nvidia nvidia 0 Feb 2 17:01 swapfile -rwxrwxrwx 1 nvidia nvidia 0 Feb 2 17:01 swapfile mkswap: error: swap area needs to be at least 40 KiB swapon: /media/nvidia/MARCELO/swapfile: insecure permissions 0777, 0600 suggested. swapon: /media/nvidia/MARCELO/swapfile: insecure file owner 1001, 0 (root) suggested. swapon: /media/nvidia/MARCELO/swapfile: read swap header failed

Any ideas? I am lost (new in linux) and really need to have tensorflow with gpu access in my TX1.

Thanks! :)

Most Linux systems are EXT4. FAT32 has issues with files > 2GB, and most NTSF systems are Macintosh. Unless there you have a very good reason to be compiling this older version from source, you should be using the official NVIDIA TensorFlow .whl files for installation. See:

Hi! When I googled Tensorflow for TX1 I reached out this GitHub, thought that was the latest for TX1. Is it possible to update the landing page about this new wheel file?

Thanks so much for this information!!! Will download it now. Didn't know I could use the package for TX2 in TX1.

Is there any other newest wheel for opencv as well?

Have a great Sunday!
