[Arduino Portenta X8] out-of-box test fails

Hi there ​@imlcorp ! Ah, exciting to hear that you’re getting to work on the Arduino/Axelera combo!

I’ll look into this a little deeper yet and come back to you, but one thing that I noticed a typo in the “prebuild” part of the image name - not sure if that’s causing the whole issue, but just in case:

axelera-sdk-ubuntu-2204-arm64-prebuid-llm:1.4.0

...should be:

axelera-sdk-ubuntu-2204-arm64-prebuild-llm:1.4.0

Hi, Spanner,

I checked the orginal page “https://support.axelera.ai/hc/en-us/articles/26405156760978-Getting-Started-with-Metis-Dev-System-with-Arduino-Portenta-X8?_gl=1*10qzeu5*_gcl_au*MTAwODEwMzYzMy4xNzYyMjExODU0*_ga*MTc1OTAyMzM5MC4xNzYyMjExODU2*_ga_GFNDED14ST*czE3NjIyMTE4NTUkbzEkZzEkdDE3NjIyMTIxODkkajE5JGwwJGgxNjM3NTI3MTY2”, 

and found that it has “prebuid” in the command.

My team is away from the office for workshop, and I will try “prebuild” as soon as I come back.

Please, check the error in the alternative compilation process.

Thank you,

Tae-Han

Ah you’re right! Good catch. I’ll also double check from this end to see if that’s a typo 👍

EDIT: I checked with the team, and the URL you originally used is actually the correct one, ​@imlcorp . My mistake. The filename needs updating from this end at some point, but the link in the guide (that you followed) actually is correct. This one:

axelera-sdk-ubuntu-2204-arm64-prebuid-llm:1.4.0

So that’s not the issue. Let’s dig into what it might be!

Hi ​@imlcorp !

I see a few things happening here.

1. As mentioned before, your error shows that you’ve used prebuild instead of prebuid. If you’ve double checked that you’ve put in the correct (without the l) command, I’m happy to help you investigate further.
2. This looks like an out-of-memory issue to me. If you do sudo dmesg, you’ll likely see an out-of-memory error (if you see something else, please post it). Note the following part of the guide

Before installing the SDK, we need to enable a swap file to overcome possible RAM limitations

sudo fallocate -l 2G /swapfile
sudo chmod 600 /swapfile
sudo mkswap /swapfile
sudo swapon /swapfile

If you’ve already done this, and you still get the out-of-memory issue, you can try to do the same steps, but with 4G instead of 2G.

Please let me know how this works out for you.
