Linux ARM64 installation

This installation method supports ARM64 Linux distributions using glibc, including Debian and Ubuntu.

Install required tools:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y curl ca-certificates libgomp1

Create the Zorix directories:

mkdir -p "$HOME/.zorix/bin"
mkdir -p "$HOME/.zorix/models"

Download the Linux ARM64 runtime:

curl -L \
  "https://huggingface.co/Zorix-official/Zorix-Nano-0.8B-GGUF/resolve/main/runtime/linux-arm64/zorix-runtime-linux-arm64" \
  -o "$HOME/.zorix/bin/zorix-runtime"

Download the Zorix GGUF Run launcher:

curl -L \
  "https://huggingface.co/Zorix-official/Zorix-Nano-0.8B-GGUF/resolve/main/runtime/linux-arm64/zorix-gguf-run" \
  -o "$HOME/.zorix/bin/zorix-gguf-run"

Make both files executable:

chmod +x \
  "$HOME/.zorix/bin/zorix-runtime" \
  "$HOME/.zorix/bin/zorix-gguf-run"

Download Zorix Nano:

curl -L \
  "https://huggingface.co/Zorix-official/Zorix-Nano-0.8B-GGUF/resolve/main/zorix-nano-0.8b-q5_k_m.gguf" \
  -o "$HOME/.zorix/models/zorix-nano-0.8b-q5_k_m.gguf"

Add Zorix GGUF Run to the current shell:

export PATH="$HOME/.zorix/bin:$PATH"

To make the command available permanently:

echo 'export PATH="$HOME/.zorix/bin:$PATH"' >> "$HOME/.bashrc"
source "$HOME/.bashrc"

Check the installation:

zorix-gguf-run --version

Start interactive mode:

zorix-gguf-run

Run a single prompt:

zorix-gguf-run -p "你好,请介绍一下你自己。"

Italian example:

zorix-gguf-run -p "Ciao, presentati brevemente."

English example:

zorix-gguf-run -p "Introduce yourself briefly."

Custom options

-m, --model PATH       Select a Zorix GGUF model
-p, --prompt TEXT      Send a prompt
-t, --threads N        Set CPU thread count
-c, --context N        Set context size
-n, --tokens N         Set maximum output tokens
    --temp NUMBER      Set generation temperature
    --no-chat          Disable conversation mode
-v, --version          Show version
-h, --help             Show help

Example:

zorix-gguf-run \
  -p "Explain artificial intelligence simply." \
  -t 4 \
  -c 2048 \
  -n 256 \
  --temp 0.7

Android and Termux

The Linux runtime cannot run directly in native Android Termux because Linux uses glibc while Android uses Bionic.

Android users must use the separate Android ARM64 edition of Zorix GGUF Run located under:

runtime/android-arm64/

Do not install the Linux ARM64 executable directly in native Termux.
