Fresh Setup Having Issues With Failed Written .bin Files

Howdy y’all! I am in the process of setting of my Pi5 with the Hailo8 Hat, and I am running into an issue that is kind of answered in other forums and topics. My issue is just a tad wonkier.

I did a fresh update and install of both Pi and Hailo software. Everything was going smoothly with no issues until I started to play around with the Demos. Once I reached Segmentation and Pose Estimation, I couldn’t get it to work.

running dmesg | grep -i hailo provides this string of checks:

I have tried finding these files in my Hailo folders without luck. I noticed on some other forum pages here on Hailo, that other users are needing to modify .json files. If that is the case, I appear to be missing certain files that would need editing or have the path updated.

I tried downgrading my Hailo Hat to 4.18 but that entirely broke everything, so I reverted back to 4.20. I have not tried downgrading to 4.19 to see if that solves my issue yet but that is next on my list. If anyone has any suggestions, I would be very grateful!

This is not an issue. It is the expected behavior.

Thank you for getting back to me! Seeing the couple failed files was bothering me. I’m glad to know this is something common. These two fails wouldn’t cause any issues with performance, would they? I’m very new and don’t quite know everything there is to know.

No, they do not. You can ignore these.

Perfect. Thank you very much for the assistance!
