This is a companion piece to my instructions on building TensorFlow from source. In particular, the aim is to install the following pieces of software

• NVIDIA graphics card driver (v450.57)
• CUDA (v11.0.2)
• cuDNN (v8.0.2.39)

on an Ubuntu Linux system, in particular Ubuntu 20.04.

Tar Usage / Cheat Sheet

Compress a file or directory

e.g: tar -czvf name-of-archive.tar.gz /path/to/directory-or-file

• -c: Create an archive.
• -z: Compress the archive with gzip.
• -v: makes tar talk a lot. Verbose output shows you all the files being archived and much.
• -f: Allows you to specify the filename of the archive.
