Try with NeMo AutoModel

1. Install (full instructions):

$pip install nemo-automodel

2. Clone the repo to get the example recipes:

$git clone https://github.com/NVIDIA-NeMo/Automodel.git
$cd Automodel

3. Run the recipe from inside the repo:

$automodel --nproc-per-node=8 examples/llm_finetune/starcoder/starcoder_2_7b_squad.yaml

1. Pull the container and mount a checkpoint directory:

$docker run --gpus all -it --rm \
> --shm-size=8g \
> -v $(pwd)/checkpoints:/opt/Automodel/checkpoints \
> nvcr.io/nvidia/nemo-automodel:26.06.00

2. Navigate to the AutoModel directory (where the recipes are):

$cd /opt/Automodel

3. Run the recipe:

$automodel --nproc-per-node=8 examples/llm_finetune/starcoder/starcoder_2_7b_squad.yaml
