You won't believe it... but I actually got this working. I ignored a lot of the instructions about one of the librarys needing to be downgraded - I assumed that surely these issues would be sorted by now.
However, it appears that I have the Magi Wallet setup!
odroid@odroid:~$ magid getinfo

}A few questions I do have:
1) How do I know what my wallet address is?
2) How do I know what block I'm currently sync'ed up to? I really don't want to do much more until this Hard Fork is completed?
3) The next thing to do is to setup a CPU Miner. There seems to be a few "flavors" of miners about - what does everyone seem to be using and why?
it's because it's using a "Long Term Support" version of the openssl files, Supported till 2019, rather then the latest ones which only have a short 6 to 12 months of support (i think). (Easier for long term stable development). that's why you have to down grade those files.
1) to display all addresses in the wallet:
magid getaddresses
to generate a new address:
magid getnewaddress
to show your current balance:
magid getbalance
for a full list of commands type:
magid help
to see what a specific command does ( like `getbalance`) use:
magid help getbalance
2) in `magid getinfo` look for the `blocks:` line that's the current block you've synced to.
check
https://chainz.cryptoid.info/xmg/ that will tell you the latest block number.
3) I use the miner in the magi github :
https://github.com/magi-project/m-cpuminer-v2/releasesit gives slightly better hash/s than the others listed in my tests.
