Gemma 4 E4B It Q8 0 GGUF

Install llama.cpp through brew (works on Mac and Linux)

brew install llama.cpp

Invoke the llama.cpp server or the CLI.

CLI:

llama-cli --hf-repo Apple3214/gemma-4-E4B-it-Q8_0-GGUF --hf-file gemma-4-e4b-it-q8_0.gguf -p "The meaning to life and the universe is"

Server:

llama-server --hf-repo Apple3214/gemma-4-E4B-it-Q8_0-GGUF --hf-file gemma-4-e4b-it-q8_0.gguf -c 2048

Note: You can also use this checkpoint directly through the usage steps listed in the Llama.cpp repo as well.

Step 1: Clone llama.cpp from GitHub.

git clone https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp

Step 2: Move into the llama.cpp folder and build it with LLAMA_CURL=1 flag along with other hardware-specific flags (for ex: LLAMA_CUDA=1 for Nvidia GPUs on Linux).

cd llama.cpp && LLAMA_CURL=1 make

Step 3: Run inference through the main binary.

./llama-cli --hf-repo Apple3214/gemma-4-E4B-it-Q8_0-GGUF --hf-file gemma-4-e4b-it-q8_0.gguf -p "The meaning to life and the universe is"

or

./llama-server --hf-repo Apple3214/gemma-4-E4B-it-Q8_0-GGUF --hf-file gemma-4-e4b-it-q8_0.gguf -c 2048
