When you're here, also switch everything over to ubuntu-26.04.sif as the base image rather than the older one. Same for the cuda images as well.

The section Using CentOS 8 for Julia (for Module Compatibility) should be removed since it was written for Greene. Torch now runs RHEL 10 on login and compute nodes.

If there is material in that section not covered by Julia Apptainer Image, update Julia Apptainer Image and remove Using CentOS 8 for Julia (for Module Compatibility) instead.

The page Apptainer with uv has spurious newlines in all code blocks. Please remove them.

Updated the instructions for setting up Julia with Apptainer, including changes to the overlay image process and module loading. Adjusted commands for running Julia and installing packages.
