📄 Description

Changes

  • Added existence check before creating ollama.service
  • Display informative message when service file already exists
  • Prevents accidental overwrite of custom systemd configurations

Motivation

During installation/upgrade, the script was unconditionally overwriting
the systemd service file, which could destroy user customizations such as:

  • Custom environment variables
  • Modified resource limits
  • Custom startup parameters

Impact

  • Safer upgrades that preserve user configurations
  • Better user experience for those who have customized the service
  • No breaking changes for fresh installations
