 An Ansible role to install the NVIDIA driver from the NVIDIA CUDA repositories.
 
+## Requirements
+
+In the process of installing the NVIDIA driver, this role will reboot the nodes where it runs.
+Because of this, we strongly recommend that you run `ansible-playbook` from a separate node than the GPU nodes where you are installing the driver.
+
+If you attempt to run Ansible on the same node where you are installing the driver, this role will either:
+
+* Refuse to proceed with an error like `Running reboot with local connection would reboot the control node` (if running with the `local` connection)
+* Reboot the node you're running on, interrupting the playbook execution! (if running the an `ssh` connection against localhost)
