# Install Ollama

```
curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/install.sh | sh
```

I prefer to make the model files available for all computers in our working group. Thus I put them on a NAS under /data_1/deepseek.


In that case you want to change /etc/systemd/system/ollama.service and add your directory to it:
```
Environment= [PATH BLA BLA] "OLLAMA_MODELS=/data_1/deepseek/models" "HOME=/data_1/deepseek"
```

After that restart systemd with:
```
systemctl restart ollama.service
```

Check the status of the service:
```
systemctl status ollama.service
```

Now we can get the models:
```
ollama pull deepseek-r1:1.5b
ollama pull deepseek-r1:7b
ollama pull deepseek-r1:8b
ollama pull deepseek-r1:32b
ollama pull deepseek-r1:14b
ollama pull deepseek-r1:70b
```

However, you want to check first which model you want based on the CPU RAM or the GPU VRAM you have:

```
ollama list | grep deepseek
```

```
