Note that you are mixing two different install methods here, but if you want to override the binary from the normal curl|sh method, you need to use the path where that was installed.

sudo tar -C /usr/local -xzf ollama-linux-amd64-rocm.tgz

Perhaps we should have the "also" in bold - to clarify, the rocm tgz contains only the rocm libraries, but not ollama itself. You'll need to extract both ollama-linux-arm64.tgz and ollama-linux-amd64-rocm.tgz

We try to keep this simple by taking care of the complexity in the install script.
