"Simply use the GGUF Unet loader found under the bootleg category"

[ZapUser77]

What is this, and more importantly HOW do I "use" this? And what is a "bootleg category"?
And why is this critical information left out of the instructions?

I wonder about that too. i cant find a bootleg category and when i start comfyui it says:

On the top where you click Run to generate images, just to the left you'll see "Manager" with a puzzle icon.
Just to the right of that, click the star icon.
Change the filter to All scroll down to ID 8 / ComfyUI-GGUF and just click install.
After restart, in Nodes a new "Extensions -> bootleg" option will appear.

Basically, install with the built-in plugin browser rather than attempting manual install.
