Install instructions don't work for windows + amd gpu

[ehartford]

Describe the bug No install instructions for stable-diffusion-webui with Windows and amd gpu

To Reproduce

1. Have Windows (I have Windows 11)
2. Have AMD GPU (I have Radeon 6800 xt)
3. Try to follow the install instructions

Expected behavior They work

Additional context There is a link for amd gpu instructions, but they do not result in stable-diffusion-webui installed or running.

There is a solution in last line:

Torch is not able to use GPU; add --skip-torch-cuda-test to COMMANDLINE_ARGS variable to disable this check

Edit webui-user.bat and add this command to COMMANDLINE_ARGS: --skip-torch-cuda-test and start again.

I do not view CPU rendering to be a "solution".

However, AMD cards don't have CUDA (which is why I switched from AMD to NVIDIA). Here's a description for Linux and here's for Windows for AMD cards, I don't know if it helps, I don't have one.

On Ubuntu, high-speed generation using docker is possible.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d_CgaHyA_n4 Install in conjunction with the guides in this repository.

If you get any error, please refer to the following https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui/issues/783#issuecomment-1254285924 https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui/issues/1220#issuecomment-1261503432

Also don't forget to update your Python to 3.10

In my case it can be generated in 15 seconds on RX6600

Thought the docker install worked on windows but I guess not. Does it work if I run a vm for linux or something

[realryo1]

That is correct. It does not work on Windows, even within Docker, and only works if you run Docker on Linux. Using a linux vm is a good idea!

Is that Ubuntu 22.04?

I've successfully ran stable diffuse using diffusers tutorial on my AMD (it took 35 sec - was hoping for more, to be honest). That said - how can I "merge" it with our lovely webui? Call me lazy but looking at the code it doesn't seem to be that simple.

[tzwel]

it doesn't look like you can do it, and it still probably generates images on the cpu, doesn't it?

Closing as stale.
