Out of memory error during build about nano_build_opencv HOT 3 CLOSED

Try building without the gui on. To switch to the command line:

Temporary:

sudo systemctl isolate multi-user.target

Persistent across reboots:

sudo systemctl set-default multi-user.target

Once the build is done, just substitute graphical.target instead of multi-user.target to go back.

Do you wish to remove temporary build files in /tmp/build_opencv ?

Building without gui.
Can i build jetson with 16 gb sd card inside from flash card pluged in usb port?

You could add a swap file on an external disk, even usb, sure, but it will probably build slower than just turning the GUI off temporarily. Swap is slow on fast SSDs. MicroSD cards are generally even slower than spinning disks, so it'll probably hurt performance if you set that up.
