## AI overview

A tutorial explains how to upgrade the Docker Engine on the NVIDIA Jetson Nano Developer Kit. It starts with Docker 18.06.1-CE and describes using Ubuntu's apt package manager to upgrade to Docker 18.09.2 from the Ubuntu repository.

## Source excerpt

In our last blogposts about the NVIDIA Jetson Nano Developer Kit - Introduction and NVIDIA Jetson Nano - Install Docker Compose we digged into the brand-new NVIDIA Jetson Nano Developer Kit and we know, that Docker 18.06.1-CE is already installed, but... But, this isn't the latest available version of the Docker Engine. So, I'd like to point you to a few different options on how to upgrade the Docker Engine to the very latest available version for the NVIDIA Jetson Nano. Check the current Docker Version For this tutorial I'm starting again with a freshly flashed SD card image. Flashing from macOS just takes a few minutes with the Hypriot flash utility, which can be found here https://github.com/hypriot/flash. $ time flash --device /dev/disk2 jetson-nano-sd-r32.1-2019-03-18.img Is /dev/disk2 correct? y Unmounting /dev/disk2 ...

Now connecting to a micro-USB power supply and follow the instruction on the screen to perform the initial setup of the NVIDIA Jetson Nano Developer Kit. This will take around 5 to 10 minutes and we do have a new Ubuntu 18.04 desktop running on that nice 64bit ARM Cortex-A57 developer board. Pro-Tip on using Docker client: As we have seen in the last blogpost, we have to use sudo when we're calling a docker command in the shell. This can be easily resolved, we only have to issue the following command ones. pirate@jetson-nano:~$ sudo usermod -aG docker pirate Ne
