A few problems with 24.04 and Jetson Orin Nano

Thanks for the image! I built a 24.04 image for the Jetson Orin Nano and noticed a few issues:

It seems like the ethernet device is renamed automatically, which means the netplan file is not automatically causing ethernet to connect with DHCP. The ethernet interface name I'm getting is enP8p1s0. I had to adjust the netplan file to make this work:

network:
  version: 2
  renderer: networkd
  ethernets:
    eth0:
      match:
        name: en*
      dhcp4: true
    eth1:
      match:
        name: eth*
      dhcp4: true

After install, CUDA programs and nvidia-smi only runs as the root user. This is fixed by adding the jetson user to the render group: usermod -a -G render jetson.
The time synchronization is not working after boot because systemd-timesyncd seems to think the machine is running as a container, due to the ConditionVirtualizaton=!container check in the service file. This is a problem as certificate checks rely on the correct time and the system can initialize at Unix epoch. I'm not sure why this is being detected as a container, but I added an override file via systemctl edit systemd-timesyncd.service with the following override content:

[Unit]
ConditionVirtualization=

The nv-l4t-bootloader-config.service seems to not run. This service seems to be for updating the UEFI? It fails with the following logs. I have not figured out how to make it run yet:

Anyways once again thanks for this image.
