Install previous PyTorch NeuronX releases for Ubuntu 20.04 — Archived
======================================================================

.. warning::

   This document is archived. Ubuntu 20.04 is no longer a supported install
   target for the AWS Neuron SDK, and these Neuron releases are superseded.
   It is provided here for reference only. For current setup, see
   :doc:`Set up environments </setup/index>`.

Use the tabs below to install a specific previous Neuron SDK release of PyTorch NeuronX on Ubuntu 20.04. Select the Neuron version you need.
