Hi, I’m trying to get SCALE to work but I’m so confused by what they mean by PATH and I’m stuck.
https://github.com/spectral-compute/scale-docs/blob/master/docs/manual/how-to-use.md
I’m at the CMAKE step.
This is the official guide I’m following. I do understand what they mean by SCALE_PATH though as that is clearly explained but PATH is just very vague to me or I’m just misunderstanding it completely.
PATH is a shell variable that defines where stuff can be executed from without writing their absolute path.
So the export PATH command just adds the scale stuff to the path.
Well, I progressed quite a bit and learned a lot more than I knew until now but I give up. This is way over my head, I’ll stick to using ROCM for now. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction at least.
Sorry to tell you to RTFM, but little obstacles like this will be WAY easier to deal with if you just commit some time to learning the basics. I’d recommend linuxjourney.com, if you take the time to fully understand everything there you will know more than 99% of people here about this stuff
Thanks, I’m still not sure I completely understand but I think this iis how it’s supposed to be
