To flash Jetson AGX Thor, you need the NVIDIA SDK Manager. This section explains what the SDK Manager is and the system requirements for running it on your host computer.

The NVIDIA SDK Manager is the application used to prepare your development environment. It download and installs the JetPack SDK, handles required dependencies, and can also flash the Jetson AGX Thor with a system image. It runs on a host computer, not directly on the Jetson board.

Host requirements:

• Ubuntu Linux 22.04 or 24.04 (x86_64)
• Internet connection
• At least 20 GB of free disk space
• 8 GB of RAM or more

Get the SDK Manager

This section assumes that your host computer meets the requirements above. The steps to get the SDK Manager installed are:

1. Download the SDK Manager installer from NVIDIA Developer. You will need to log in or create a free NVIDIA Developer account to download it.

2. Install the SDK Manager by running the following command in a terminal:

sudo dpkg -i <SDK_Manager_Installer_Download_Dir>/sdkmanager_<version>-<build>_amd64.deb

Note

Note: Replace <SDK_Manager_Installer_Download_Dir> with the actual download path, and <version> and <build> with the values in the installer filename.

Example: If the downloaded file is sdkmanager_2.3.0-12626_amd64.deb use:

sudo dpkg -i <SDK_Manager_Installer_Download_Dir>/sdkmanager_2.3.0-12626_amd64.deb

3. Verify the installation by launching the SDK Manager:

sdkmanager

You should see the SDK Manager login window (Figure 1). The version number is displayed in the top-left corner.

Figure 1. NVIDIA SDK Manager Login Window

To check the version from the terminal, close the UI and run:

sdkmanager --ver

Example output:

2.3.0.12626

At this point, the SDK Manager is installed and verified. You are ready to continue to Installing JetPack 7.0.
