+## Creating a list of work on tux04
+
+We'll use a test table first on tux02. It should not matter for precompute because we'll regenerate hashes from the DB input and GEMMA output. I.e., we only need to recompute if something has changed in phenotypes or genotypes and that is quite rare.
+
+We will work on tux04 and I'll first install the database there. In the process we'll need to get the basic environment going that we need for work. First I thought I'd copy the backup from space - as I thought it has 10Gbs, but actually it uses 1Gbs and the backup is a month old (need to fix that too!).
+
+Alright, let's use tux02 for the DB. On the new machine tux04 we disable /etc/profile and /etc/bash.bashrc - people can add that themselves and it messes up guix profiles.
+After creating my environment it looks like any other machine I use and I have the same keyboard short cuts.
+
+Note that my UID may be wrong for Octopus, but that requires a more heavy surgery anyway.
+
+Next we create a drop for the backups from another machine following:
+
+=> ../backup_drops.gmi
+
+Now we are copying the backup which takes a while over the slow network.
