Stuck when trying to create a container in docker

Hello all!

I’m running this and I’m currently stuck on the step to unzip the file and create a docker container, as my pc just gets stuck in the “Loading docker image”

Terminal is as follows

simon@simon-ThinkPad-T14s-Gen-3:~/Documents/Internship/code$ cd hailo8_ai_sw_suite_2025-10_docker/
simon@simon-ThinkPad-T14s-Gen-3:~/Documents/Internship/code/hailo8_ai_sw_suite_2025-10_docker$ ls
hailo8_ai_sw_suite_2025-10.tar.gz
simon@simon-ThinkPad-T14s-Gen-3:~/Documents/Internship/code/hailo8_ai_sw_suite_2025-10_docker$ ./hailo_ai_sw_suite_docker_run.sh

The only problem i see happening would be the 16gb of ram, I am now using a bit of swap aswell, but it still doesn’t justify waiting for 2h in this and nothing happening

I haven’t found a similar problem, thank you for your time!

Welcome to the Hailo Community!

I just downloaded and installed the new Hailo-8 AI Software Suite Docker on Ubuntu 22.04. Everything worked as expected.
Unpacking and starting a new container should take between 5-10 minutes on an SSD. During the installation the RAM usage was very low. The Docker image requires quite a bit of hard drive space.
If this is a first time installation of Docker. It may be useful to restart the system after adding your user to the docker group (see guide step 1).
