+    - If you found that the following installation step does not work for you, please refer to [docker/Dockerfile.rocm_base](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/blob/main/docker/Dockerfile.rocm_base). Dockerfile is a form of installation steps.

 0. Install prerequisites (skip if you are already in an environment/docker with the following installed):
 
     - [ROCm](https://rocm.docs.amd.com/en/latest/deploy/linux/index.html)
     - [PyTorch](https://pytorch.org/)
 
-    For installing PyTorch, you can start from a fresh docker image, e.g, `rocm/pytorch:rocm6.4.3_ubuntu24.04_py3.12_pytorch_release_2.6.0`, `rocm/pytorch-nightly`. If you are using docker image, you can skip to Step 3.

     Alternatively, you can install PyTorch using PyTorch wheels. You can check PyTorch installation guide in PyTorch [Getting Started](https://pytorch.org/get-started/locally/). Example:
 
     ```bash
     # Install PyTorch
     pip uninstall torch -y

     !!! tip
-        - Triton flash attention is used by default. For benchmarking purposes, it is recommended to run a warm-up step before collecting perf numbers.
-        - Triton flash attention does not currently support sliding window attention. If using half precision, please use CK flash-attention for sliding window support.
-        - To use CK flash-attention or PyTorch naive attention, please use this flag `export VLLM_USE_TRITON_FLASH_ATTN=0` to turn off triton flash attention.
         - The ROCm version of PyTorch, ideally, should match the ROCm driver version.
