 How to (this hasn't been 100% tested yet):
 
-First [download the model](https://huggingface.co/CompVis/stable-diffusion).
+First get the weights checkpoint download started - it's big:

+Sign up at https://huggingface.co
+Accept the terms and click Access Repository: https://huggingface.co/CompVis/stable-diffusion-v-1-4-original
+Download sd-v1-4.ckpt (4.27 GB) and note where you have saved it (probably the Downloads folder)
+While that is downloading, open Terminal and run the following commands one at a time.
 
 ```
-brew install --cask miniconda
-brew install Cmake protobuf rust
