Windows First Missing Linux Example
Summary
The documentation lists Windows Server OS support first and provides more detail for Windows than Linux. Only one Linux distribution (RHEL 7.4) is listed as supported, with Ubuntu support deprecated and requiring manual intervention. There are no Linux-specific deployment or troubleshooting examples, and no mention of Linux command-line tools or patterns. The documentation does not provide parity in examples, guidance, or supported platforms for Linux users.
Recommendations
  • List supported Linux distributions and versions with the same level of detail as Windows.
  • Provide Linux-specific deployment examples, including command-line instructions using Bash or relevant Linux tools.
  • Include troubleshooting steps and guidance for manual GPU driver installation on Linux, with clear references to Linux package management and system administration.
  • Ensure that Linux instructions are presented alongside Windows instructions, not as an afterthought.
  • Expand support to more Linux distributions commonly used for GPU workloads (e.g., Ubuntu 20.04+, CentOS, SUSE).
