A more powerful Docker command to run would be this:
```bash
docker run --gpus '"all"' --rm -it --name axolotl --ipc=host --ulimit memlock=-1 --ulimit stack=67108864 --mount type=volume,src=axolotl,target=/workspace/axolotl -v ${HOME}/.cache/huggingface:/root/.cache/huggingface winglian/axolotl:main-py3.10-cu118-2.0.1
docker run --privileged --gpus '"all"' --shm-size 10g --rm -it --name axolotl --ipc=host --ulimit memlock=-1 --ulimit stack=67108864 --mount type=volume,src=axolotl,target=/workspace/axolotl -v ${HOME}/.cache/huggingface:/root/.cache/huggingface winglian/axolotl:main-py3.10-cu118-2.0.1
```
It additionally:
* Prevents memory issues when running e.g. deepspeed (e.g. you could hit SIGBUS/signal 7 error) through `--ipc` and `--ulimit` args.
* Persists the downloaded HF data (models etc.) and your modifications to axolotl code through `--mount`/`-v` args.
* The `--name` argument simply makes it easier to refer to the container in vscode (`Dev Containers: Attach to Running Container...`) or in your terminal.
* The `--privileged` flag gives all capabilities to the container.
* The `--shm-size 10g` argument increases the shared memory size. Use this if you see `exitcode: -7` errors using deepspeed.
