Describe the bug
A clear and concise description of what the bug is.

Upgrading to the latest version clobbers my /etc/systemd/system/ollama.service file. If the file exists it should not be overwritten. Or the distro should only include a sample file like so /etc/systemd/system/ollama.service.sample

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1 Install ollama-webui as a service
2 Customize /etc/systemd/system/ollama.service like adding:
Environment=OLLAMA_HOST=0.0.0.0
Environment=OLLAMA_ORIGINS=*
3 Upgrade to the latest ollama-webui version

Expected behavior
A clear and concise description of what you expected to happen.
/etc/systemd/system/ollama.service is overwritten, destroying any customizations to this file.

Screenshots
If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem.

Hi, Could you tell us how exactly you installed/upgraded the web ui? I'll close this issue for now, as the WebUI does not contain any code that edit any system service files. Keep us updated, Thanks!
