Looks like there are some missing quotes somewhere in the installer code.

Thanks for the heads-up, we have improved the installer for an upcoming release. I will make sure it works with spaces in the target install path. Are you able to install GAIA to a different location w/out a space for now to get you unblocked?

I also faced similar issue lately, changing install path to C:\GAIA does completes the install.

I've managed to install GAIA only after manually installing miniconda for my user at D:\miniconda3 and GAIA at D:\GAIA. Miniconda's installer also has this problem.

Hi @Skjold we are aware of this issue and have fixed it in the upcoming v0.8.2 release.

Hi @Skjold, the latest release found here should fix this.

Edit; nevermind, the issue still exists but should be resolved in an upcoming release. Will post here with an update once it's available.

This pretty frustrating i tried everything in between mutliple and multiple installs reinstalls but nothing worked.. i always get this :
ERROR | gaia.interface.util.display | util.py:75 | Error: lemonade_server.py:38 | launch_lemonade_server | The lemonade package is required for HuggingFace and OGA backends. Please install it first.
Even if my installs always returns no errors

I keep getting this issue too and I can't find a way around it, install Lemonde first, at the same time, after, run whilst opening gaia, open first, open after.

i tried in 2 different system both with hx370 and same result.. i also installed the full lemonade sdk wich is working fine as well as the ryzen AI package and fine too, just this gaia thing isn´t, this is 100% lack of testing or install's instructions are missing out a passage.

I have a Ryzen 9 AI 365. I couldn't agree more.

Hi @alesx75 and @DarwinEvolvedMozart, can you try the latest version of GAIA and let us know if you're still running into issues?

https://github.com/amd/gaia/releases/tag/v0.8.4

It should resolve the following error:

ERROR | gaia.interface.util.display | util.py:75 | Error: lemonade_server.py:38 | launch_lemonade_server | The lemonade package is required for HuggingFace and OGA backends. Please install it first.

This was a result of a package dependency that was changed outside of GAIA, sorry about the trouble.

Hi @kovtcharov I can confirm this works for me, thank you. The massive AMD logo takes up so much room, you can't always see the entire input. I'm gping to try the beta version.
Thank you again.
