# Installing on Linux
1. Retrieve and launch the docker container (optional).
You can pre-install the environment using the [NVIDIA Container Toolkit](https://docs.nvidia.com/datacenter/cloud-native/container-toolkit) to avoid manual environment configuration.
```bash
# Obtain and start the basic docker image environment (optional).
docker run --rm --ipc=host --runtime=nvidia --gpus all --entrypoint /bin/bash -it nvidia/cuda:12.4.1-devel-ubuntu22.04
```
Note: please make sure to set `--ipc=host` as a docker run argument to avoid `Bus error (core dumped)`.
2. Install TensorRT-LLM.
```bash
# Install dependencies, TensorRT-LLM requires Python 3.10
apt-get update && apt-get -y install python3.10 python3-pip openmpi-bin libopenmpi-dev git git-lfs
# Install the latest preview version (corresponding to the main branch) of TensorRT-LLM.
# If you want to install the stable version (corresponding to the release branch), please
# remove the `--pre` option.
pip3 install tensorrt_llm -U --pre --extra-index-url https://pypi.nvidia.com
# Check installation
python3 -c "import tensorrt_llm"
```
Please note that TensorRT-LLM depends on TensorRT. In earlier versions that include TensorRT 8,
overwriting an upgraded to a new version may require explicitly running `pip uninstall tensorrt`
to uninstall the old version.
3. Install the requirements for running the example.
```bash
git clone https://github.com/NVIDIA/TensorRT-LLM.git
cd TensorRT-LLM
pip install -r examples/bloom/requirements.txt
git lfs install
```
Beyond the local execution, you can also use the NVIDIA Triton Inference Server to create a production-ready deployment of your LLM as described in this [Optimizing Inference on Large Language Models with NVIDIA TensorRT-LLM](https://developer.nvidia.com/blog/optimizing-inference-on-llms-with-tensorrt-llm-now-publicly-available/) blog.
