I am attempting to load a large local Hugging Face model (
./ltx-2-19b-dev.safetensors", .safetensors format) inside JupyterLab using transformers, but the kernel crashes immediately during from_pretrained() without any Python traceback.
When I run this code: from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer model_id = "./ltx-2-19b-dev.safetensors" tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id) model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_id)The kernel immediately restarts and I get a popup saying something like:
The kernel for Untitled.ipynb appears to have died. It will restart automatically.
There is no Python traceback shown in the notebook — it just crashes.
Why would AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained() cause the kernel to crash without a traceback?
