Mini-guide for installing a node on Debian Jessie

Hi everyone !

Here is a mini-guide based on my real experience at the moment (june 2015), with a fresh installation of Linux DEBIAN Jessie.

I wanted to run a node by compiling it from Monero repository. After several problems, it finally worked (see Link Text)...

1) Install dependencies sudo aptitude install git cmake libboost-all-dev libssl-dev libevent-dev libdb++-dev

2) Get the sources git clone https://github.com/monero-project/bitmonero.git

3) Compile cd ../bitmonero && make

4) Run ./build/release/bin/bitmonerod

The result is quite simple, after all !

NB : you can download the blockchain before step 4 if you want, nothing special about that Link Text.

Edit:

This is no longer necessary. Follow the instructions in the very last comment here:

> Download the monero file for your system (64 or 32 bit). then: > right click zipped file and click "extract here" > In terminal: cd /to/unzipped directory/ > ./bitmonerod > that's it.
