can I ask what size sd card you are using. I just ran the script for Jessie on an 8gb card, and at end ..error message came up that there was not enough space to make directories ....hmmm. am now trying with 16gb
also the model pi I am using has 512 ram....will that be an issue?

JC this is GREAT! this is exactly what i had in mind when running the wallet for the Pi.  It is much nicer and gives people more confidence when they can see te "usual" look and layout of the wallet, this is an important addition.    Really pleased you were able to do this, thank you.

For more info on Raspbian Jessie please see/read > https://www.raspberrypi.org/blog/raspbian-jessie-is-here/

Hell Yeah they are!  > http://www.iodigital.io/roadmap/roadmap-status/

Make sure to check the whitepaper also found on the first post here.  Lots of fantastic developments in the making.

I've been buying coins for the last while. This coin looks good but are the devs still working on new innovations?

Thanks for the incentives!

I spent some more time and looked into the Qt5 issue. I managed to solve it so that Qt5 wallets can be widely distributed but only when using Raspbian Jessie. I have updated the Pi instructions post to have 2 installation scripts, one for Wheezy (only headless wallet) and one for Jessie (headless and Qt5 wallets)

Thank you IOC Team Members.  You guys are great! As always looknig after the community and making sure all the coins people have are safe and secure. I am sure everything will be Spot On with the Code, JC is a stand up guy, i sent him 25,000  IOC by mistake (thats over 1BTC) and he refunded the 22,500 instantly.  So someone honest and genuine like this would be really great to help IOC, which i hope he agrees to help you out.

Also, looking on twitter, i see you have sent your Master Plan to the Venture Capitalists, good luck guys you deserve it!

What version did you get? Did you get a kit? I'm going to start looking at this wallet later today after a few errands.

jc12345,


Thank you for posting this. We truly appreciate your effort in putting this together. I/O Coin & I/O Digital staff does not at this point endorse using this wallet/method. While it may work very well and have no issues, it was not an internal development. We will be reviewing the instructions, code, wallet as well as the bootstrap to ensure is has no negative impact on the community, IOC, the blockchain, etc. Until this occurs...if one chooses to use this, they are doing so at their own risk. This in no way is an indication that this isn't the perfect solution for the Raspberry Pi. The team just wants to ensure we do our due diligence before we endorse this method. Again, thank you for putting this together and we are beginning the review and testing process immediately. After speaking with Joel and Richard...the 3 of us will each donate 1500 IOC to you for a total of 4500 IOC if everything in the code, bootstrap, wallet, testing on the Raspberry Pi, etc looks good and goes well.

Thank you,

Sam & the I/O Team

should this work on an older pi...I have a Raspberry Pi 1 Model B that I bought awhile ago but never used?

A BIG Thank You JC fantastic work, really great.    I see people have sent you the donations also, i just sent yours.
(will need a partial refund, opps)  

I sent JC 25,000 IOC by mistake and he returned the overpayment to me instantly! A Top Lad! Very Honest, like his work!

Can you also take a look at the new HTML wallet when it is released and hopefully it will be possible to do the same for the new wallet with the Pi 2.


Maybe the IOC team here will make you the Pi guy for I/OCoin You have a great work ethic and honest and reliable, so would be a great addition to the team.

I hope many people here will buy a Pi 2, they are only $50 and you can do all sorts with them, amazing little machines.



They only use a couple of watts electric also! Very quiet with heat sinks and you can happily stake you  IOC coins every day 24/7 and get the most rewards. Raspberry Pi's are amazingly popular and endless possibilities.  I will have mine Tuesday and get up and running.

Many thanks Simon.

Thank you very much jc12345, I don't currently own a pi and your post raised my curiosity. I'll probably get one soon , in the meantime, I have just sent some coins your way, thanks again

I just sent the 1,000 ioc I pledged.

thanks

now off to shovel snow  ....a lot of snow

Purchased an Pi today. Hope i can check it out this week!
Lets be the most environmentally friendly staking community out there ;-)

Cheers
Richard

It is a pleasure

IOC address appended to Pi wallet post above.

awesome, a heartfelt thank you to you sir, for providing your expertise to this project.
if you could,  please provide ioc wallet address so we can show our appreciation.

Thanks for this! i hope someone can try this out since i personally don't have any pi (yet).
Also thanks for the bootstrap which i hope we can use for new releases of the wallets we have.

Cheers
Richard

Here are the Raspberry Pi wallets for IOCoin. If you are using Raspbian Wheezy (v7) you have to use the headless command line wallet. If you are using Raspboan Jessie (v8) you can choose between the headless commandl line wallet or the Qt wallet.

Important:
1) Always backup your wallet.dat first before you do anything
2) The wallets were built on Raspberry Pi2 (ARM7) running Raspbian Wheezy (v7) as well as Jessie (v8) and the instructions and scripts assume you are running as user "pi". It is a pre-requisite to have either Raspbian Wheezy or Jessie installed on your Pi micro-SD card. You can find instructions of how to do this on https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/ by either installing n00bs and selecting your OS or by downloading the image for one of the 2 versions of the OS.
3) Installation directory where the binaries are installed is ~/opt/iocoin or /home/pi/opt/iocoin
4) To run the wallets go to the directory with the wallets and run the wallet file (iocoind_jessie or iocoin_wheezy for the respective headless wallets at the command line or if you have Jessie you can click on the IOC icon on the desktop or run the iocoin-qt wallet.
5) An Internet connection is required for the installation
6) A bootstrap.dat is available to fast track the blockchain sync - up to block 734407. The installation script does not force the install of the bootstrap.dat as it is very large. You need to manually download it, unzip it and place the bootstrap.dat in the ~/.iocoin folder and then run the wallet.
7) The bootstrap.dat also works for Windows wallets. Windows users just have to copy the bootstrap.dat file into their c\users\yourusername\AppData\Roaming\IOCoin folder and run the Win client again
8.) You need at least an 8GB memory card for the wallet.
9) The installation itself takes about 30-45min on an out-of-the-box Pi, but due to the large chain it will take several hours to import the blockchain.
10) You cannot just download the dynamic wallets, 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 ports 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 from the command line.
12) Always verify the checksums when you download files to make sure it was downloaded ok. To verify the checksums on your Pi, go to the ~/opt/iocoin folder and execute sha256sum and md5sum and compare the values with the values in the checksums.txt file. Do the same for the bootstrap.dat

Instructions to use the headless command line daemon wallet:

1) The installation script creates an iocoin.conf file with the startup settings in it. Go to the folder with the binaries ~/opt/iocoin and enter ./iocoind_jessie or ./iocoind_wheezy (depending on which version of the OS you installed) in a terminal window to start the server
2) After the blockchain has been imported you can enter the normal wallet commands that you would as in a Windows debug console preceded with ./iocoind_jessie or ./iocoind_wheezy eg. ./iocoin_jessy getinfo. During the first time blockchain import process the wallet will be non-responsive in the sense that it will say it cannot connect to the wallet. Just wait for the import to finish and the wallet will become responsive again.
3) Remember to always make a backup of your wallet.dat file before you do anything like encrypting it
4) To encrypt your wallet run the command ./iocoind_jessie encryptwallet or ./iocoind_wheezy encryptwallet
5) Once you have the wallet running, blockchain imported and your wallet with coins on the Pi, then you can kickstart staking by executing ./iocoind_jessie walletpasshprase 99999999 true or ./iocoind_wheezy walletpasshprase 99999999 true

Instructions to use the Qt wallet:

1) The wallet works exactly the same as the one in Windows.

To kickstart the installation execute the following commands at the command prompt or in a terminal window on your Pi.

For Raspbian Wheezy (headless wallet)

Code:

wget https://bitbucket.org/jc12345/iocoin/downloads/ioc_installation_pi_w.sh && chmod +x ioc_installation_pi_w.sh && ./ioc_installation_pi_w.sh && rm -f ioc_installation_pi*

For Raspbian Jessy (headless & Qt wallet)

Code:

wget https://bitbucket.org/jc12345/iocoin/downloads/ioc_installation_pi_j.sh && chmod +x ioc_installation_pi_j.sh && ./ioc_installation_pi_j.sh && rm -f ioc_installation_pi*

Fantastic News!  Lets hope the wallet can be ready for release on February 14th! Because i am sure everyone is going to Love this new wallet, that if i think correctly, will be a First for Crypto!

If it is looking good to be released on Valentines Day.  You guys could maybe put some great images together and we, the community cna blast them on social networking sites with #love #dions this #valentinesday 

A consensus was reached by Pat and Derek. Derek has started to code the final api code (in a private Bitbucket account) to the DIONS Wallet. Once he is done, Pat will clean up the code and Ophie will finish the front end design. As soon as the html5 wallet with DIONS is ready for testnet, we will update the community.



Thanks Everyone

I/O Digital Dev Team

Thank you Cohnhead, thats a great offer, like i say, the more we get the better! This makes the new total 5,000 IOC. Also when the new wallet is out, hopefully it should be easy enough (for an expert) to run a program for the new wallet to work on the Pi also. (as a free update due to the generosity of the community here).

Regarding payment. I have asked for JC's ioc address and we can send the payment direct and easy check it on the blockchain.

A BIG thank you.  Also JC told me they will post here once it is complete they are loading the blockchain as we speak.
