## Installing nvcc

If you have an NVIDIA GPU and ever need to compile something, like ExLlamav2 (that currently doesn't have pre-built wheels), you can install `nvcc` by running the `cmd_` script for your OS and entering this command:

```
conda install cuda -c nvidia/label/cuda-11.7.1
```

## Using an AMD GPU in Linux

Requires ROCm SDK 5.4.2 or 5.4.3 to be installed. Some systems may also
need: sudo apt-get install libstdc++-12-dev

Edit the "one_click.py" script using a text editor and un-comment and
modify the lines near the top of the script according to your setup. In
particular, modify the os.environ["ROCM_PATH"] = '/opt/rocm' line to
point to your ROCm installation.

## WSL instructions

If you do not have WSL installed, see here:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install

If you want to install Linux to a drive other than C
Open powershell and enter these commands:

cd D:\Path\To\Linux
$ProgressPreference = 'SilentlyContinue'
Invoke-WebRequest -Uri <LinuxDistroURL> -OutFile Linux.appx -UseBasicParsing
mv Linux.appx Linux.zip

Then open Linux.zip and you should see several .appx files inside.
The one with _x64.appx contains the exe installer that you need.
Extract the contents of that _x64.appx file and run <distro>.exe to install.

******************************************************************************
*ENSURE THAT THE WSL LINUX DISTRO THAT YOU WISH TO USE IS SET AS THE DEFAULT!*
******************************************************************************

Do this by using these commands:
wsl -l
wsl -s <DistroName>

### Web UI Installation

Run the "start" script. By default it will install the web UI in WSL:
/home/{username}/text-gen-install

To launch the web UI in the future after it is already installed, run
the same "start" script. Ensure that one_click.py and wsl.sh are next to it!

### Updating the web UI

As an alternative to running the "update" script, you can also run "wsl.sh update" in WSL.

### Running an interactive shell

As an alternative to running the "cmd" script, you can also run "wsl.sh cmd" in WSL.

### Changing the default install location

To change this, you will need to edit the scripts as follows:
wsl.sh: line ~22   INSTALL_DIR="/path/to/install/dir"

Keep in mind that there is a long-standing bug in WSL that significantly
slows drive read/write speeds when using a physical drive as opposed to
the virtual one that Linux is installed in.
