I'm actually having a few problems.  Well I might be.  I don't know.

When I tried to start spreadcoind it told me that the .conf file was missing from testnet3 directory which isn't a path I specified.  

I wonder if vertoe's instructions were a little bit too oriented to testnet masternodes?

Spreadcoind is running but I'm not seeing blockchain downloading.  I also saw this message when I started it: [1] 1203

I've probably ballsed it up.

EDIT:  I'm an idiot.  I  did this:  git checkout mn-test

oops. sorry 

Well, looks like he knows how to set-up a masternode.

::Shakes fist angrily at Coins101!::

I have an instance running and waiting to be a SPR node.  I have limited Linux experience but I learned how to create and update DRK masternodes no problem so this shouldn't be beyond me.

I can follow instructions.  Spell them out to me like I'm an Infrastructure Programme Manager who thinks he knows everything and you've got yourself another node.

Minus the time spent setting up a masternode (sorry about that, I didn't read the title properly, Juv vs. Real Madrid is on is my excuse this time), that was about an hour:


Props!

Sorry, I can't because my Mum and Dad would get angry at me for having my computer on all the time.

As a fan of textual guides rather than videos, I'll offer a 2,000SPR bounty to the person who produces a nice clear step by step guide to setting up a full node (with screenshots if necessary).

Vertoe's testnet guide is really easy to use...something like this http://spreadcointalk.org/index.php?topic=45.0

I reckon it should be pitched at confident techies with little or no Linux experience.

lol

pm vertoe. He produced that masternode guide for ~1,000 SPR bounties, most of which I don't think he expected. He might be up for a refresher  

Slack?

What an unfortunate name, lol
