• Linux distribution installed: Ubuntu 16.04

Partition made for machine learning:MachineLearning

• In Windows: Disk Management -> Resize DataStorage
• Create new ext4 patition

Mounting the partition automatically:

• Get the UUID of the learning:MachineLearning partition
• sudo blkid

• Add partition to fstab:
• sudo nano /etc/fstba
• Add at the bottom these two lines:
• UUID=(id of the MachineLearning partition) /media/MachineLearning ext4 1 2
• UUID=(id of the DataStorage partition) /media/DataStorage ntfs-3g defaults=en_US.UTF-8 0 0

Give writting permissions to new MachineLearning partition

• sudo chmod -R a+rwx /media/MachineLearning/

Installing NVIDIA Driver:
