How to run DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Llama-8B-abliterated
Run DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Llama-8B-abliterated with vLLM
Generic example, not from the model's own docs: adjust flags (quantization, context length, parallelism) for your setup.
vllm serve huihui-ai/DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Llama-8B-abliterated --tensor-parallel-size 1Run DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Llama-8B-abliterated with GGUF quantizations
Prebuilt GGUF weights published at mradermacher/DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Llama-8B-Abliterated-GGUF. Run with llama.cpp's llama-server or load the repo directly in LM Studio.

Deploy DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Llama-8B-abliterated on Aquanode
Aquanode has no one-click deploy template for DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Llama-8B-abliterated; you install the inference engine yourself with the commands below. Aquanode sells GPU pods billed per second, not a hosted inference API.
- Launch a bare GPU pod sized to the requirement above (1× RTX 3090 or larger).
- Open a terminal on the pod, or save one of the commands above as a startup script so it runs automatically the first time the pod boots.
- Run the command and connect to the resulting endpoint.
