Colleagues of ours want to use our research teams ML computer for a while. Because of data security, we can’t give them the machine as is. It would be nice if I could backup the entire system, install a clean version of ubuntu and hand it to them. When they are done, they can return it, and we reinstall our backup.
Is there a way to do this? I’m talking about an exact copy, so ideally I don’t need to do much work when it comes back, just “copy back” our stored backup file and boot it up. Installing the correct cuda versions and drivers as well as the python environments was quite the pain, and I’d like to avoid having to do that.
Thanks for the help!
