cd ibex-miniconda-install/
source install-miniforge-ibex.shThis script automates the installation of Mambaforge (Provides same commands as Miniconda) with user-specified options, sets up environment variables, configures Mambaforge behavior, and provides instructions for activating Mambaforge. It is designed for use in environments where Conda package management is needed. On ibex /ibex/user/$USER, you will find your folder for the WekaIO partition. However, if the following prompt appears ...
Do you wish the installer to initialize Miniconda3
by running conda init?
...we recommend that you type no to avoid having to manually initialize Conda for Bash later.
As we recommend base to be deactivated, to activate it, you will need to source it
source /ibex/user/$USER/mambaforge/bin/activate If you are still a little unsure about the whole process, we have created a tutorial on our YouTube channel that will walk you through the above steps in detail.
Conda is a rapidly developing tool and it is important that you keep your versions on
Ibex updated to the most recent version available. We have included an update-conda.sh script
that will update Conda for you. Change into the ibex-miniconda-install directory and source
the update script.

ssh $USERNAME@ilogin.ibex.kaust.edu.sa # use glogin.kaust.edu.sa if you need GPU nodesChange into the ibex-miniconda-install directory and source the uninstall script. Sourcing
the install script insures that you don't need to logout of Ibex in order for the changes made
by the uninstaller script to take effect.
cd ~/ibex-miniconda-install/
source uninstall-miniconda.shRunning uninstall-miniconda.sh will delete all Conda environments stored in the
~/miniconda3/envs directory.
