Docker Run Issue with Runtime Flag

Docker Engine General

I am getting this issue when I add the “--runtime nvidia” tag. I need it to access the Nvidia GPU. Any suggestions/

ptc@orin:~$ docker run -d -it --rm --net=host --runtime nvidia -v /mnt/ssd:/mnt/ssd nvcr.io/nvidia/l4t-ml:r36.2.0-py3

Since you haven’t shared anything anbout what you did / configured / installed, I can recommend the following links from NVIDIA:

Use the NVIDIA toolkit and the --gpus option with docker run. The runtime is an archived project now.
