*Raspberry Pi 2:
User: pi / Password: raspberry , follow normal setup.

a) Type: sudo raspi-config
b) Set your Time Zone, change your pi user password and Expand the file system, restart.
After restart the system you can type:  "startx"   to start the user desktop.
c) System ready for use.



a) Go to Menu > Internet and Click on your favorite Cryptocurrency Wallet

This will open the Cryptocurrency wallet and start sync.

*For some Cryptocurrencies the initial sync might take some days, wallets are fully usable after being fully Synchronized.



b) Always remember to make constant backups of your wallets and save them in USB or external media.

Use your wallets in ROKOS to plug HW and mine, Send/Receive, Stake, Share,
become a full node and support your favorite Cryptocurrency network, develop new applications,
etc, the limit is only in your imagination.


Important Security Notice:
*) Remember to create a backup for your Wallets, you can use the wallets to create them and save in different folders on a USB device.
You should ALWAYS have a backup of your wallet, Raspberry Pi Hardware, Raspbian and ROKOS Software are under development hence not responsible for missuses, electrical or compatibility issues that might cause a loss of information. It is as secure as one's ability to take care for it, same as a computer, so always have a backup of your wallets on an external device.

*) Some people tend to recommend getting a 128Gb MicroSD HC (High speed) , at the same time it does work, I do not recommend this solution, as microSD cards tend to get corrupted by the number of overwrites, to ensure the best functionality and security you should use an external HDD/USB storage device to store the chains.


You can start testing and developing new integration with ROKOS and your favorite cryptocurrencies for your IoT projects.







(I did this on a Windows computer, and I dont know what tool to use for Mac to install the iso file Image burner, for this guide you will have to figure out that yourself, if you use Mac)

1. Download and install SD Formatter 4.0 (This is the tool to format the SD card) from:
Windows: https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_4/eula_windows/SDFormatterv4.zip
Mac: https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_4/eula_mac/SDFormatter_4.00B.pkg
(or find it yourself at: https://sdcard.org/downloads)

2. Insert the MicroSD/MicroSDHC card into your PC/Mac. (You will probably need an MicroSD to SD adapter for this).

3. Start SD Formatter 4.0 and click the [Option] button. In there you change from "FORMAT TYPE: QUICK" to "FORMAT TYPE: (FULL)Erase", just leave the "FORMAT SIZE ADJUSTMENT" in OFF and click the [OK] button so start the format. When the card is completely formatted click the [Exit] button to close SD Formatter.

4. Download and install Win32 Disk Imager (This is the iso file Image burner) from:
Windows: http://sourceforge.net/projects/win32diskimager/files/latest/download

5. Download ROKOS Core (rokos5.img.zip) and unzip the ISO file (This is the awesome ROKOS Core "Operating System" that we are going to install on the SD card) from:
Download: http://bit.ly/rokos5flavors
(or find it yourself at: http://rokos.space

6. Start Win32 Disk Imager, press the "little blue folder" and select the "rokos5.img" file that you did extract. Make sure your SD card is selected in the list to the right and press the [Write] button. It will tell you that it can corrupt the SD card, just press [Yes] to continue the installation, when the installation to the SD card is done press the [Exit] button to close Win32 Disk Imager.

7. Now "Safely remove" your SD card from the computer.

8. Put the MicroSD/MicroSDHC card in your Raspberry Pi 2, and make sure you got an USB Keyboard, Monitor (via HDMI), and and Internet cable connected to the Raspberry Pi 2 before you connect the power cable to your Raspberry Pi 2.

ENJOY THIS AWESOME OPERATING SYSTEM!

Infernoman has beaten me to it, but there it is anyway:

The link in the OP ( http://www.europecoin.eu.org/europecoin-wallet-download/category/1-europecoin-wallet?download=24:bootstrap-dat-20-12-15 ) is the same with the one on europecoin's site ( http://www.europecoin.eu.org/europecoin-wallet-download/category/1-europecoin-wallet ) and it seems to be referring to a botstrap.dat from Jan. 31, 2016 despite the link's hint to 20-12-15...
To sum it up, I think the fastest way to get on track "manually" is:
1. obtain latest version of the qt wallet (Europecoin[.exe]) or of the daemon (europecoind[.exe]) either by compiling it (for Linux and Mac, read the docs on github) or by downloading it from the link above;
2. SAVE YOUR OLD WALLET IN AT LEAST 2 PLACES (if you encrypted it, make sure you remember the password);
3. clean the data directory (~/.europecoin/ on Linux, where "~" means "home directory", or %userprofile%\AppData\Roaming\europecoin\ on Windoze from Vista to 10) where the wallet dat resides too (make sure you have at least one copy of it elsewhere) - delete everything in here (you did back it up, did you?);
4. download the bootstrap.dat from OP or europecoin site http://www.europecoin.eu.org/europecoin-wallet-download/category/1-europecoin-wallet?download=24:bootstrap-dat-20-12-15;
5. launch Europecoin[.exe] until it starts properly (on my Linux box it exited 3 times, then the 4th time it started sync-ing);
6. go to work, walk your dog, play with (your) kids, make love to your significant one.... whatever... it will take some time to sync

I'm going to release an archive on dropbox. This SHOULD be a drop in replacement to your data directory and will put you on exactly the right block number which is 902621 at the time of posting. The only thing that will need to be replaced is the username and password in the .conf file.

On another note there is another node online AT erc.infernopool.com

AND this should help everyone out greatly. if you'd like to test it without screwing up the sync on your regular chain until your are sure it works.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/fwkx3cmcbj2jikg/ERC2.zip?dl=0

Create a new folder named "ERC".
Place the europecoin.exe beside that folder.
Create a file named run.bat.
Inside of that file add "europecoin.exe --datadir=ERC" save it.
Place the files from dropbox in the ERC folder.
Start run.bat.

I'm not quite sure if the one in the OP is up to date but the one on the europecoin website is only a few months behind. another tip to get your wallets going a bit quicker if you have to resync is to use a fresh wallet.dat then once your on the correct block. close the client down. and replace the wallet.dat with your old one.

Thank you - I have been synch-ing for 24 hours and only have reached 183,000 blocks of the over 800,000 chain.
Is the bootstrap in the Ann up-to-date?

This is just for the time being until we can get a few more nodes online and on the correct chain. I will have another online by tomorrow than we will be able to use aswell. And if anyone else can verify they are on the same block as the explorer I can add them to the list.

Anyone thats still on block 902229 will be able to update to the new client. and get connected to the correct chain to start staking WITHOUT reloading the blockchain. anyone else that's still having issues please be patient until we get a few more nodes online.

It's me again, with my Ubuntu 14.04 x64 box...
Got the latest version from git and compiled it. I started a "sync from scratch" with the freshly compiled binary (without even the old wallet.dat which is saved elsewhere, and with only "connect=stratum.infernopool.com" in europecoin.conf).
The sync is tedious at best and tremendously frustrating...
The "one node to serve them all" approach is not the happiest ever...

There aren't too many connections on the network at the moment. stratum.infernopool.com is on the right chain and is also providing the block explorer at stratum.infernopool.com:3004

To connect use "connect=stratum.infernopool.com" Once you are on the same block as the block explorer. you can change the "connect=" to "addnode=" and restart the client so you can start staking again.

Is there anyone with a working new wallet?

I have only 1 connection and a stuck at block 902275.

I will spend some thoughts on how to make the downloads more clear and easier to use,
but i did not leave the old filenames because of laziness, but to preserve external downloadlinks,
and to keep them functional. But even for that problem, there are solutions, as soon  as we got everybody satisfied
with the wallet i will Work on some websolutions for our collaborative partners, to make them able to migrate to our site, and
that todolist has now alse a task "optimize download structure and version naming for easyer download".
But untill then, you can trust the following: There aren't ANY outdated links on our OP

.

100% agree. I have only copied the link, so its easier to find for others. Btw, the new wallet doesn't work for me.

Its very unclear, and just stupid to release a new wallet with old misleading information... On info it says its from 16 of december if you read whats written it says 28 of January nowwhere you can find its the latest one if you dont try and download what seems to be a old version just to find its not what you tried to dl.  It should be the easiest thing to find the newest wallet and  to find instructions on how to use it and only have updated information easy accessable, if this ever gonna go mainstream, it has to be clean to understand, easy to find must have information thats up to date. all the goodie stuf under the hood can be tucked away the ones thats insterested in that will find it anyway, but the must know info for newcomers and people not sure have to be easy accessible with clean instructions.

So clean up first page here, and remove all nodes there aswell now since all of them using old wallet and are non functioning at the moment, only node thats up and on current version, is the one infernoman linked in this thread a bit earlier. remove old download links to old wallets here and on hompepage , its better to have non then an old non function one. and let the wallet updates here and on homepage get clear dates so its easy to see what wallet im using, and to see so i got the latest one.

This is the link to the new wallet:
http://www.europecoin.eu.org/europecoin-wallet-download/category/1-europecoin-wallet?download=22:europecoin-2-0-windows-cloud

its very unclear what to click, please either remove wallet download link and make it clearer that you have to click the "button" or easier just update the get wallet here link.  And even worse when you click the "button" you get redirected to a site that tells you to click another link to get the wallet but there you only get error message " you have no rights to access files in this category" and on the homepage its only the old wallet?!?? because i really hope you learned last time if you change wallet version/upgrade anything you also get latest date on it so its easier for everyone to see they got the latest version.

as of now i havent been able to find the new wallet or access it even thou i created an account on the site to see if i got permission then but its a no go... :/

really hoped i would had time to set it up for my friends im visiting now, before i had to go :/ but its a no go , guess i will try in a few months when im here next time. (luckily this time i thought one extra time before and didnt promote and sell it in to much or i would be standing there again... )

I`m still haveing problems with the wallet, sync from the scratch but only 1 or none connection.

Thanks a lot mate now i`ve downloaded and starting to sync.

They haven't change the button, but the wallet is the new one.


edit: i have only 1 connection and my last block is 902275, 10 hours ago. 

Mate i only see on website old wallet from 28.01.2016..

On OP...click the button

Matthias where is the new windows wallet?
