Miniconda on Joule

[AAlex49]

Does anyone know how to get Miniconda running on the Joule whenever I try to install it I get the error:

1. tar: unrecognized option '--no-same-owner'
2. BusyBox v1.22.1 (2015-09-29 22:18:03 GMT) multi-call binary.
5. Usage: tar -[cxtzJjahvO] [-X FILE] [-T FILE] [-f TARFILE] [-C DIR] [FILE]...

Is there any way to install GNU Tar over the BustyBox tar? Or something similar to this guide for the Intel Edison https://www.scivision.co/miniconda-python-on-intel-edison/ https://www.scivision.co/miniconda-python-on-intel-edison/

Hi Zates,

Thanks for contacting us!I have been working on installing Miniconda in the Intel Joule, unfortunately I'm getting the same issue that you got. It seems to be a problem with the extraction of a certain tar file in the script, one of the parameters is not being recognized. Let me investigate a little bit more and I'll back to you soon.Regards,-Yermi

Hi Zates,

Thank you for your patience.I would like to know if using Ubuntu is a viable solution for you. Do you have any inconvenient with this?We'll be waiting for your reply.Regards,-Yermi

No I would like to use the current version of the operation system, and not install Ubuntu.

Hi Zates,

In this case, I'd suggest you to install GNU Tar (http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/tar/ http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/tar/) because the Busybox Tar does not have the needed Tar options. So please take a look at the following guide, and you would need to use the Miniconda x64 script, not x86: https://theiotlearninginitiative.gitbooks.io/embedded-linux/content/documentation/Conda.html https://theiotlearninginitiative.gitbooks.io/embedded-linux/content/documentation/Conda.html. I've installed the GNU Tar and then, installing Miniconda, I got an error when I was extracting the files, however, please try to do it and let me know if you were able to install Miniconda.

Hope this information helps. If you have any questions please let me know.

Regards,

-Yermi

Hi Zates,

That is the error that I had gotten, I've been trying to install different versions of Miniconda, but unfortunately, I've been getting the same error (cannot execute native Linux-64 binary), looking for that error I found these:

So, I believe that Miniconda is not supported in the Ostro OS XT yet. Regards,-Yermi

Hi Zates, Yermi,

I was getting the same error but managed to solve it. Conda installer was trying to refer to .so files in the 'lib64' directory whereas the file is in 'lib' directory.

Simply copy the contents of 'lib' to 'lib64' and install again. It should work
