Docker sdk manager installs to /home/nvidia/Downloads

I am running wsl 2.0 on windows 11 and i am running the docker sdk manager 2.1.0 and the command I run is
sdkmanager --cli --action downloadonly --login-type devzone --product Jetson --target-os Linux --version 6.0 --host --target JETSON_ORIN_NX_TARGETS --license accept

However the path the files gets downloaded to is not correct, it seems that it thinks a user named nvidia exists and is being used but I do not have such user, example from the prints during download:
info: download /home/nvidia/Downloads/nvidia/sdkm_downloads/cuda-tegra-repo-ubuntu2204-12-2-local_12.2.12-1_arm64.deb successfully, checksum is correct

When I try to change the download folder to an existing folder (–download-folder ~/Downloads/nvidia/) it says:
Invalid download folder: Path provided does not exit.

During the installation process it is saying that the files are downloaded and so I checked where they actually are installed to by running “sudo find / -iname nvidia 2>/dev/null” and got this result:
/var/lib/docker/overlay2/57c4b5b6af5e84c1010e043f252548e1d0073b39a76afbe5c346a5b0a9f761e7/diff/home/nvidia
/var/lib/docker/overlay2/99eb81d1c8b99683d16e7d672b53b6934cf3809d59025e665e51c04ac4e316b8/diff/opt/nvidia

How can I change the download folder, or how do I ensure the sdk is downloaded successfully to my current user?

Hi,
On pure Linux system the path is ~/Downloads/nvidia/, so it may be specific to WSL. We will check further. Is it fine to have the files downloaded to /home/nvidia/Downloads/nvidia/? Or any concern for the fixed path?

The issue is that the files do not get downloaded to this path. I also tried to create this folder but it did not download the files into there anyway.
Is there anyway to just use curl or wget to get Jetpack 6 for Jetson?

Hi,
Please download the packages from release page:

And follow the steps to extract the packages, and flash system image:
