Hi, i am trying to create rtx A6000 spot instance in FIN-01. The resulting instance ships without cuda installation even if i choose “Ubuntu 24.04 + CUDA 12.6 + Docker” when creating the instance. I have tried it 3 times and it still showed the same result. Can anyone help with this?
Hi,
It looks that the cuda is actually installed but the default image doesn’t have the required kernel module. We are looking deeper into this.
In the meantime you can manually install the kernel with these commands:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install nvidia-driver-550
sudo reboot
Reboot will disconnect your SSH connection and once the instance has rebooted, you will have a working setup. Both nvidia-smi and nvcc --version commands should return valid values. If they do not, let us know and we’ll recheck!
