time make -j$(nproc) VERBOSE=1

Now you can generate Debian archives for installation:

time make -j$(nproc) package VERBOSE=1

Install:

sudo dpkg -i *.deb

nano /etc/environment

To the end of the first line (PATH), add the following:

:/usr/local/cuda/bin:/usr/lib/llvm-4.0/bin

Save and Exit

source /etc/environment

mkdir -p /installs/drivers/intel-compute-runtime/workspace/build_icr

cd /installs/drivers/intel-compute-runtime/workspace/build_icr

cmake -DBUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ../neo

time make -j$(nproc) package VERBOSE=1

sudo dpkg -i *.deb

apt-get install clinfo

clinfo

Now you should see that ICD is installed

And finally you can run

hashcat -b
