I tried that, and it says the nodes have been allocated, but it never comes to an apptainer prompt.</div>

I then tried doing them in separate steps. Doing salloc works, I get a prompt on the node that was allocated. I can then run "singularity shell <sif>" and get the apptainer prompt. If I prefix that command with "srun", then it just hangs and I never get
the prompt. So that seems to be the sticking point. I'll have to do some experiments running singularity with srun.</div>
