install seems to get stuck for me

[chefbennyj1]

Hi, I've attempted to install a couple times now on my Windows machine. Things look good until I get to the PS loading of the "build" files. Looks like npx gets the files but then gets stuck on:

data PS C:\Users{MyUserName}\dalai\llama\build>

any ideas?

The detailed install steps for Windows warn not to use Powershell. Apparently things fail silently in it.

Ive definitely been using CMD on the one machine.

On another machine it seems to pull the llama model 7B and 13B without any problems. I guess I'm going to use that machine for this.

But, the 65B seems to always get stuck around 75%. I left it over night, and still no joy. I think I'll try one more time to pull the 65B.

I solved some issues (like a permissions failure) by increasing the verbosity of the console reports, npx -dd dalia .... Where d, dd, ddd increases the amount of reporting to level 1,2,3.
