Instructions To Succesfully Install Linux with Cuda in AMD machine

  1. Check the AMD Radeon Software for Linux latest version that is available. This is because until these graphics drivers support a linux kernel version there is no use trying to install linux in your machine.

  2. Check the kernel version supported and create a bootable drive of the linux distro with exactly that kernel.

  3. While installation DONOT agree 'download updates while installation'. Random updates are installed which can be a problem.

  4. After installing there is a high chance that the neither(internal gpu nor dedicated GPU) drivers are installed. If the linux doesnt boot under GUI, try TTY (ctrl+alt+F[1-6]) and change the following parameter in /etc/default/grub

    GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT = "nomodeset"
