I can guarantee that I won't work on the original - it was armv6l.
I can guarantee it will work fine. However a static build would have been better Smiley

Nice work, though - I'm sure it'll help a lot of people.

Here is the Raspberry Pi wallet for v2.0.5.7 - for both the Qt and the headless daemon (command line wallet) versions.

Important:
1) Always backup your wallet.dat first before you do anything
2) The wallet was built and tested on a Raspberry Pi2 (ARM7) running Raspbian Wheezy. It might work on an older Pi but I have not tested it
3) Installation directory where the binaries are installed is ~/opt/diamond or /home/pi/opt/diamond
4) All that is needed is to execute the command below on your Pi in a terminal window and afterwards you need to click on the Diamond icon on your X desktop or go to the directory with the wallets and run the daemon (diamondd) with the options you want at the command prompt or in a terminal window
5) An Internet connection is required for the installation
6) I have made a bootstrap.dat to fast track the blockchain sync - up to block 918953. I did not force the blockchain download in the installation script due to the size. The file has to be downloaded manually and copied into the same folder where your wallet.dat file is. On the Pi that is ~/.Diamond
7) The bootstrap.dat also works for Windows wallets. Windows users have to unzip/tar the file and copy the bootstrap.dat file into their c\users\yourusername\AppData\Roaming\diamond folder and run the Win client again
8.) You need at least an 8GB memory card
9) The installation itself takes about 45min on an out-of-the-box Pi, but the blockchain import will take a very long time
10) You cannot just download the binaries, you have to run the script to get the dependencies as well else it will not run
11) The installation script does not enable the UFW firewall by default. If you want to enable it, uncomment the UFW lines in the script and add the port you want open and run it again or enable it manually by running the UFW commands as in the script with the correct port numbers
12) Remember to confirm the checksums of your files to make sure that they downloaded ok. Execute the commands sha256sum and md5sum at the command prompt or in a terminal window in the directory where the file is that you want to check.

Users will be familiar with the Qt version of the wallet as per the Windows version. Instructions to use the headless daemon:

1) Since you have an Diamond.conf file with the startup settings in it, go to the folder with the binaries ~/opt/diamond and enter ./diamondd in a terminal window to start the server to create the ~./Diamond folder. Exit the wallet.
2) Download and copy the bootstrap.dat into the ~./Diamond folder and run the wallet again
3) After the blockchain has been imported you can enter the normal wallet commands that you would as in a Windows debug console preceded with ./diamondd
4) Remember to always make a backup of your wallet.dat file before you do anything like encrypting it
5) To encrypt your wallet run the command ./diamondd encryptwallet
6) To stake with your wallet run the command ./diamondd walletpassphrase 99999999 true

Let me know about any issues that you may encounter.

To kickstart the installation execute the following command at the command prompt or in a terminal window on your Pi:
Code:
wget https://bitbucket.org/jc12345/diamond/downloads/diamond_installation_pi.sh && chmod +x diamond_installation_pi.sh && ./diamond_installation_pi.sh && rm -f diamond_installation_pi.sh

Never before 11 P.M.
It's been nice seeing the surge in recent traffic to the DMD thread and it's main forum.

If you want a lot of personal attention feel free to post those questions here as well:
https://bit.diamonds/community/index.php

Some of the most experienced users will be more willing to explain in detail on the DMD Forum without all the (usually a good thing regardless) commotion of the BCT altcoin forums.

I should have been more clear about my question, I did the whole 'shoot off a question without enough details' thing.  Sorry about that.

What I was really asking is: With the 3-9 day known issue how do you really know your coin weight?  Do I need to wait 9 days and the bug will work itself out?  I like big blocks of coins and I like looking at the coin weight to get excited about the future, even if the future possible minting is a month away.  I hope that makes more sense.

Second, the wallet only gets Malwarebytes node blocking when I am minting.  I haven't had any wallet get nodes blocked by Malwarebytes besides my TRC wallet, or when I am using a bittorrent client.  I was wondering if maybe some of the nodes aren't totally up to par, security wise.

Thirdly, everyone has been a great help and I am always stoked on a coin that has great support.  You guys are all pretty awesome, so thanks!

Lastly, to Shveicar.  It is fine to not like a TEK, but currently the whole cryptocoin environment works together in a kind of mesh.  I cashed out 1+ BTC worth of staked TEK to buy DMD.  You may not like TEK; I think it has problems, but it allowed me to support another coin and that seems pretty cool.  Two months from now I plan on cashing out another 1+ BTC to support another coin.

Once again, thanks for all of the help!

So, when should I unlock my wallet to start staking?  And what is a good estimate of how long it takes to stake?

I see you come from TEK background. DMD Diamond s different, you do not have to time your staking to match lowest difficulty like TEK.
You can keep it open all the time if you want, and it ll stake for you, no loss there, 50% a year.

Alternatively, you can keep your wallet closed and open it once a month if you like, stake your coins and close it down.

DMD s got much superior system to those of Tek, IMHO. Our inflation control rest on DMD layout and the number of coins, not on staking difficulty like Tek.

TEK is unlimited coin.
Empty clone PPC. it makes no sense to even mention here about it.
Now the market is full of junk coins.
If you are spraying their funds for investment projects of the dead would soon risk being left with empty pockets.
Game puppeteers and their pumps and dumps do not say that any clone coin a can be worthwhile.

if u goal is to only open wallet in mint mode one day from time to time then do it once every 30 days

Also, today Malwarebytes started to regularly blocks nodes from my wallet to the network.  I haven't had that happen ever before with a wallet except for the TRC wallet.

So today I got home from work, and I was all excited to see that my wallet was staking.  But my coin weight was only 1, and I have more coins in that 3 day old transaction then 1.
I looked back in this thread and it said it really starts after 9 days, so I was all like, "Hm, that must be it."
But then I restarted my computer and now the coin weight is like 1100.
How is that number being generated?

Also, just a suggestion for future wallet upgrades.  Can you put the coin age and coin weight (like with the Tekcoin wallet) in the Coin Control Features?  I know there is a date on there, but I find it easier at a glance if the coin age and weight is there.

Thanks!

thx for feedback

the estimated time to mint and coin weight display wrong information is a known bug

it was inaccurate before POS timing adjustment

but since POS timing adjustmnet its not only inaccurate it show just wrong stuff

we will fix that in one of or next wallet releases

maybe we will choose to replace it with another code part
we will check out and evaluate which solutions are existing and select the best one

Thanks for pointing this out.

Updated. The creator of the DMD price ticker app Wiskunde (who used to be our community member) has moved it to a combined app so the link has changed. I still have some old Android application package that's specifically DMD themed. Will upload it later on.

Thanks!  That seems to have solved the problem.

Just to be safe, how do you check that you are on the proper blockchain?

compare ur blocknumber with https://chainz.cryptoid.info/dmd/
they have a well connected and maintained wallet

also u can crosscheck by look in this thread here

if there would be big problem where chainz explorer is on wrong chain u sure read it here

sometimes a wallet restart alone is enought to fix a stuck sync wallet

most wallet have issues localized and just need restarted to be ok or backup up DAT file and resync  .    Chainz is updated frequently to be use as good comparison .
