  1 | # linux bootstrap
  2 | 
  3 | This probably isn't useful to anyone, and I'm not really maintaining it as an
  4 | open-source project. But I thought I'd keep it public in case anyone wants to
  5 | see...
  6 | 
  7 | Tested on Debian Buster
  8 | 
  9 | ## install and configure sudo
 10 | 
 11 | ```
 12 | su
 13 | apt install sudo
 14 | usermod -aG sudo anish
 15 | ```
 16 | 
 17 | ## enable non-free components
 18 | 
 19 | Edit `/etc/apt/sources.list` and add `contrib` and `non-free` to the end of all the lines.
 20 | 
 21 | ## machine-specific
 22 | 
 23 | ### gondor
 24 | 
 25 | ```
 26 | sudo apt install intel-microcode
 27 | ```
 28 | 
 29 | ### bongo (AMD A8-3850)
 30 | 
 31 | ```
 32 | sudo apt install firmware-realtek
 33 | ```
 34 | 
 35 | ### mordor (r710)
 36 | 
 37 | ```
 38 | sudo apt install firmware-bnx2 firmware-qlogic
 39 | ```
 40 | 
 41 | **This firmware (bnx2) is required to use the NICs at all, so it's needed
 42 | during install to configure the network. Using the Debian distribution that
 43 | includes non-free firmware solves this problem (because it includes bnx2).**
 44 | 
 45 | ## set up dynamic dns
 46 | 
 47 | Look at "quick cron example".
 48 | 
 49 | ## ssh server
 50 | 
 51 | Add ssh key to `~/.ssh/authorized_keys`.
 52 | 
 53 | Disable SSH password login in `/etc/ssh/sshd_config` by setting
 54 | `PasswordAuthentication no`.
 55 | 
 56 | ## install programs
 57 | 
 58 | ```
 59 | sudo apt update
 60 | sudo apt install \
 61 |     curl git mercurial vim htop iotop axel aria2 silversearcher-ag \
 62 |     build-essential pkg-config \
 63 |     autojump python3-pip python3-venv python3-dev \
 64 |     vnstat lm-sensors rsync zsh tmux
 65 | ```
 66 | 
 67 | ### scientific computing
 68 | 
 69 | ```
 70 | sudo apt install python-numpy python-scipy \
 71 |     gfortran libblas-dev liblapack-dev \
 72 |     libjpeg-dev zlib1g-dev python-opencv
 73 | ```
 74 | 
 75 | ## set default shell
 76 | 
 77 | ```
 78 | chsh -s /usr/bin/zsh
 79 | ```
 80 | 
 81 | ## set up a ssh key
 82 | 
 83 | ```
 84 | ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -a 100
 85 | ```
 86 | 
 87 | Note that the `-a 100` is the number of rounds of the KDF to use, so it doesn't
 88 | matter for an unencrypted key.
 89 | 
 90 | Add `~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub` to GitHub account.
 91 | 
 92 | ## install dotfiles
 93 | 
 94 | ```
 95 | mkdir -p ~/src
 96 | cd ~/src
 97 | git clone git@github.com:anishathalye/dotfiles
 98 | cd dotfiles
 99 | ./install
100 | cd ~/src
101 | git clone git@github.com:anishathalye/dotfiles-local
102 | cd dotfiles-local
103 | git checkout linux-server
104 | ./install
105 | ```
106 | 
107 | ## gpu setup
108 | 
109 | ```
110 | cd ~/src/dotfiles-local
111 | git checkout gpu
112 | ./install
113 | ```
114 | 
115 | * [NVIDIA drivers](http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html)
116 | * [CUDA toolkit](https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads)
117 |     * Get kernel headers first: `sudo apt install linux-headers-$(uname -r)`
118 |     * Using the Ubuntu `.run` file should work
119 |     * Reboot afterwards
120 | * [cuDNN](https://developer.nvidia.com/rdp/cudnn-download)
121 |     * Accelerated Computing Developer Program membership required
122 |     * Copy files to `/usr/local/cuda`
123 |
