How to install JetPack 5.1.2 using SDK Manager 2.0 and host computer running ubuntu 22.04?

Hello

My goal is to run ubuntu 20.04 on Jetson Orin Nano Dev Kit. Jetpack 6 will install Ubuntu 22.04

The dropdown option only allows me to select Jetpack 6

my host machine is Ubuntu 22.04

I am not very advanced but am familiar with SSH commands, flashing SD cards etc. Also please indicate when to change to recovery mode and when to remove the jumper.

thank you!

Hi @xsaf,
You can modify the release file

sudo vi /etc/os-release

Save a copy first:

sudo cp /etc/os-release /etc/os-release.back

Then modify the original so it looks like:

NAME="Ubuntu"
VERSION="20.04.6 LTS (Focal Fossa)"
ID=ubuntu
ID_LIKE=debian
PRETTY_NAME="Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS"
VERSION_ID="20.04"
HOME_URL="https://www.ubuntu.com/"
SUPPORT_URL="https://help.ubuntu.com/"
BUG_REPORT_URL="https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/"
PRIVACY_POLICY_URL="https://www.ubuntu.com/legal/terms-and-policies/privacy-policy"
VERSION_CODENAME=focal
UBUNTU_CODENAME=focal

Then reboot and should be good to go.
