Hi there, this should be fixed in https://github.com/ollama/ollama/releases/tag/v0.3.5. If you'd like to install it ahead of it being fully released you can run:

curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/install.sh | OLLAMA_VERSION=0.3.5 sh

Sorry about that!

Hi @jmorganca I want to find a way to use another disk directory instead of /tmp when run ollama create. I have a lot of space in other directories but not /tmp. Can I do this?
