This is referring to #137 , which in itself refers to a common problem during installation, mentioned on #19 .
Some users may encounter significant trouble installing the project, running into the error
OSError: CUDA_HOME environment variable is not set. Please set it to your CUDA install root.
. Simply adding the--no-build-isolation
flag to the pip install, e.g.pip install --no-build-isolation -e .
, usually solves this problem. However, this fix is not mentioned anywhere within the readmes or installation troubleshooting docs. This PR adds this recommendation into the INSTALL.md file under the "My installation failed withCUDA_HOME environment variable is not set
" section, ensuring that more users are aware of this potential fix.Examples of users experiencing related difficulties when installing:
