mkdir -p /home/$USER/JetPack-L4T/
mv JetPack-${VERSION}.run /home/$USER/JetPack-L4T/

3. Set the Jetpack binary as executable and set correct permissions.

cd /home/$USER/JetPack-L4T
chmod +x JetPack-${VERSION}.run

This might take a while since Jetpack must download all packages and install some of them on the host computer.

Considerations for Docker

If you want to run JetPack inside a newly created docker container take into account the following considerations.

sudo apt install lsb-release x11-utils libgtk2.0-0 gksudo

# Ugly hack to avoid dealing with policy files and be able to spawn GUI apps
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/gksudo /usr/local/bin/pkexec
