Lack of space for complete setup

Hello!

I purchased a Jetson Mate Cluster board with 4 Jetson Xavier NX SoMs and followed the step by step installation as per the link https://wiki.seeedstudio.com/Jetson-Mate/ and installing via SDK Manager.

After installing the Jetson OS + SDK on all SoMs I reached the stage of installing the Kubernetes orchestrator but when installing an error occurs due to lack of storage because each Xavier has 16Gb and the complete installation consumes completely.

I wonder if it is necessary to install the Jetson OS + SDK in all SoMs because the unit is 100% used.

I would like the ideal installation scheme or some possible solution for this situation.

Thank you.

Hi @rcpehls ,

You may use this script to remove unecessary files:

clean_jetson.sh

# https://elinux.org/Jetson/FAQ/BSP/RootFS_Reduction#Remove_installed_deb_packages

## Step 1, safe
sudo apt update
sudo apt autoremove -y
sudo apt clean
sudo apt remove thunderbird libreoffice-* -y

## Step 2, still safe but not recommended for dev use

I’ve been able to get 5,9GB available with it.

Aditionally you may consider to install k3s instead of a full blown k8s.
