TX2 - 4GB emulation

Autonomous Machines Jetson & Embedded Systems Jetson TX2

I have followed the instructions for running the Jetson TX2 as Jetson TX2-4GB as referenced here:
https://developer.nvidia.com/embedded/jetson-tx2-4gb

After running “sudo ./flash.sh jetson-tx2-as-4GB mmcblk0p1”, the device does boot and show 4GB of physical memory. However, the next step indicates using JetPack to install SDK components. This step seems to also reflash the OS at which point the system goes back to showing 8GB of physical memory.

How can I get the JetPack SDK components installed while still configured as a 4GB unit?

You can uncheck flash as a step and just leave package install checked.

Thanks. Once I put the JetPack 3.3 tool in to Custom instead of Full install mode, I was able to set the OS install to “no action”. I now think I have the system configured correctly.
