Installation for Jetson Orin Nano on Jetpack 6.1 L4T36.4

📚 The doc issue

Can someone please tell me how to install mmpose on a fresh Jetson Orin Nano?

The documentation didn’t specify the fact that pre-compiled mmcv are only for x86. So does it mean for Jetson, mmcv must be compiled from source?

As for compiling from source, I realise with 4GB RAM it’s very easy to run out of memory, so I have already got a 8GB swap setup.

And is it true that there’s no more mmcv-full from 2.x.x, only mmcv and mmcv-lite?

And I think if I use pip or mim to install to a Jetson, it will not find a .whl binary as no arm64 binaries are provided. So in that case, is pip / mim running the same process like ‘Compile mmcv from source’?

When compiling mmcv from source, do I only pass the argument ‘MMCV_WITH_OPS=1’ or are there more to make it CUDA enabled?

Does compiling mmpose depends on the version of mmcv?

Is there are more updated version of interoperability between
L4t / Python / PyTorch / CUDA against mmcv / mmdet / mmpose?

Does mmpose work with Jetpack 6 at all or do I have to downgrade to Jetpack 5?
