Known Issues
This DLAMI does not support G4dn and G5 EC2 instances at this time. Amazon is aware of an incompatibility that may result in CUDA initialization failures, affecting both G4dn and G5 instance families when using the open source NVIDIA drivers together with a Linux kernel version 6.1 or newer. This issue affects Linux distributions such as Amazon Linux 2023, Ubuntu 22.04 or newer, or SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 15 SP6 or newer, among others.
