  1. Removed the --extra-index-url https://wheels.vllm.ai/nightly from the uv install instructions because this causes it to crash; Removing that flag solves the issue and is more stable overall. Tested with RTX 5090 CUDA 12.8 on Linux.

  2. Removed uv pip install -U triton>=3.3.1 because triton 3.3.1 is already installed with the vllm command.

Thanks! Yes it looks like vllm supports Blackwell, so I guess no need for nightly releases!
