How to install NVIDIA Tesla drivers for an EC2 instance backing Cloud9?

1

I am trying to set up a Cloud9 instance backed by an g4dn.xlarge instance and need install NVIDIA drivers. I have been attempting to follow the guidance here: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/install-nvidia-driver.html ut have been hitting various roadblocks.

I see a couple of possible routes to this goal:

  1. Download public drivers from https://www.nvidia.com/Download/Find.aspx The problem here is that "Amazon Linux 2" is not among the dropdown list choices for operating system. Would one of the supplied RHEL versions work?

  2. Use a preconfigured AMI (e.g., https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/prodview-64e4rx3h733ru?sr=0-1&ref_=beagle&applicationId=AWS-EC2-Console). I was not able to see a route to using an arbitrary AMI with Cloud9 except in the case of the option to use existing compute infrastructure.

Tesla installation documentation can be found at https://docs.nvidia.com/datacenter/tesla/tesla-installation-notes/index.html#centos7. Try the CentOS 7 section.

Alternatively, you can refer to Install NVIDIA drivers on Linux instances which has instructions for installing NVIDA GRID and gaming drivers on g4dn instances on Amazon Linux 2.
