Not possible to do Make

I tried to install via make. I have read that this mistake is often due to the architecture. Im trying to install it on the Nvidia-Jetson-Xavier.

My environment (Nvidia-Jetson-Xavier)

Linux jetson-desktop 4.9.140-tegra (#)1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Dec 9 22:52:02 PST 2019 aarch64 aarch64 aarch64 GNU/Linux

Linux installed via NVIDIA SDK Manager DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS"

If you have any information for me to solve this problem, I would be very grateful. Thank you in advance.

Hi,

the architecture sounds like a possible culprit. Your Jetson is an arm64 device. We have only tested the Dockerfile on x86_64 machines, and unfortunately we have no possibility to test in on other architectures.

I'm afraid I cannot help in this matter, sorry. :slightly_frowning_face:

Thanks for responding so quickly. I will try a little bit more and get back to you if I have managed it.

I close this issue as it is not a fault of yours. If I can get it running on the Jetson Xavier, I will contact you again.
