When trying to install CUDA on Ubuntu 16.04.03 using the runfile(local) option I encounter an error where the suggestion to solve it says:
nvidia-installer command line:
./nvidia-installer
--ui=none
--no-questions
--accept-license
--disable-nouveau
--dkms

-> The distribution-provided pre-install script failed! Are you sure you want to continue? (Answer: Continue installation)
WARNING: One or more modprobe configuration files to disable Nouveau are already present at: /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-installer-disable-nouveau.conf. Please be sure you have rebooted your system since these files were written. If you have rebooted, then Nouveau may be enabled for other reasons, such as being included in the system initial ramdisk or in your X configuration file. Please consult the NVIDIA driver README and your Linux distribution's documentation for details on how to correctly disable the Nouveau kernel driver.
-> For some distributions, Nouveau can be disabled by adding a file in the modprobe configuration directory. Would you like nvidia-installer to attempt to create this modprobe file for you? (Answer: Yes)
-> One or more modprobe configuration files to disable Nouveau have been written. For some distributions, this may be sufficient to disable Nouveau; other distributions may require modification of the initial ramdisk. Please reboot your system and attempt NVIDIA driver installation again. Note if you later wish to reenable Nouveau, you will need to delete these files: /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-installer-disable-nouveau.conf
-> Would you like to register the kernel module sources with DKMS? This will allow DKMS to automatically build a new module, if you install a different kernel later. (Answer: Yes)

An incomplete installation of libglvnd was found. Do you want to install a full copy of libglvnd? This will overwrite any existing libglvnd libraries. (Answer: Abort installation.)
I tried to install the libglvnd library manually but had no success so far.
Moreover, I also tried to install it using the cluster(local) version but when trying to install cuda-cluster-runtime-9-0_9.0.176-1_amd64.deb I get the error
Preparing to unpack cuda-cluster-runtime-9-0_9.0.176-1_amd64.deb ...

I’ve been trying to install CUDA for a few hours now and I’m lost as to what else I could try. Any help would be really appreciated.
