Starting our stack on the Jetson

Check the file history to see when this was last updates, and add your own updates as needed. Things change frequently on the Jetson.

1. Sometimes Ubuntu will auto-mount the SSD to the wrong location. Just in case, run

$ sudo umount /media/main/VoltronMain
$ sudo umount /media/main/VoltronMain1
...

Repeat as necessary.

2. Mount our SSD to the right place with $ sudo mnt /dev/sda1 /home/main/data

   • Files from the SSD should now be available in /home/main/data/. You can check:

main@voltron:~$ ls /home/main/data/
99-slabs.rules     home                      root                                          sbin                      zed-dockerzed-config

3. Reload the Docker daemon to pull from the SSD: $ sudo systemctl restart docker

4. Now start our Navigator image, which handles everything but the ZED camera: $ /home/main/navigator_start.bash

   • This will start a shell session inside Navigator's Docker container
   • If you didn't restart the Docker daemon above, you'll get an error later on like:

main@voltron:~$ ~/navigator_start.bash
