Hoa,

Thank you for your suggestion. The Jetson Orin Nano normally comes with 4Gbyte 
Ram, so I can see that it could be a problem. Where do you apply the 
–limit-ld-memory-usage command? Did you attempt to build it with the docker 
command? I am using the Jetson Orin Nano for GPU and openmpi work, so the 
docker approach would help isolate the system. I am going to work through the 
installation procedure and see where it ends up.

Nick

Hi Nick,

I don't think there would be any problem with compiling gem5 on arm (or riscv) 
architecture on Ubuntu. I've been compiling/using gem5 on an arm system and it 
works for me.

However, please make sure that the system has enough memory to compile gem5. 
Typically compiling gem5 takes a lot of memory, and you can pass 
"--limit-ld-memory-usage" to reduce the memory consumption.

Regards,
Hoa Nguyen

I have been using gem5 on a number of linux systems  such as WSL under windows

system were X86 based. I have a jetson orin nano which runs Ubuntu 20.04 and is 
based on the ARM processor. Has anyone ever compiled gem5 on a non-x86 based 
system? I have access to gcc compilers for x86, arm and mips that run on ARM, 
but I am not sure what needs to be done to compile gem5 on ARM.
