Booting the latest kernel 6.8.0-62-generic (for Ubuntu 24.04) into recovery 
mode with networking enabled, I still got the same non-working result.

First I made sure everything was cleanly removed
apt remove --purge *570*
apt remove --purge '^nvidia-.*'
apt autoremove
reboot

(into recovery mode with networking enabled)

apt install nvidia-driver-570

# dkms status shows it installed for 3 kernels
dkms status

# nvidia-smi doesn't work
NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the NVIDIA driver. 
Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running.
