Keep what's important, and know who's your friend
Also I have another question regarding Monerodo.  I downloaded the Monerodo ISO file, and after downloading my computer said this:

Quote
Windows cannot open this file:

To open this file, Windows needs to know what program created it. Windows can go online to look it up automatically, or you can manually select from a list of programs on your computer.

Do I need to download something else to open the file?

@Arux, great job! Did you know the code for restoring a MyMonero seed was already up on Github? (not merged however)

Perhaps you could take a look at it and merge it with your code such that it becomes bugfree.

The code to add support for MyMonero derivation to simplewallet was already written a year ago: https://github.com/warptangent/bitmonero/commit/35b1500536a98e02ea459ca6ccb42e8248de43a8

This question comes up often enough that I think that merging the code would be beneficial. One less think for people to worry about.

When downloading Monerodo OS and installing the universal USB installer of Linux on a thumb drive... what would be a good recommended thumb drive to use?  It says certain ones wont work on here.  I guess just any kind that isn't a "Fat 16, 32, or NTFS" obviously... but what are some good cheap ones that hold a lot of memory?

Hey guys, a bit of topic. But I was figuring out when Zcash will launch and how to get them, but couldn't find anything. Somebody maybe knows this? Thanks a lot!

There is no specific date yet, Zooko approximated a launch in 6 months from now. However, there is always a possibility that it gets postponed. Also, bear in mind that it's currently only available on testnet.

Thanks! Will there be an IPO?

If I recall correctly there will not be an ICO you will have to mine them or buy them. There is to be an 11% devtax on mined coins. Somewhat off topic here though.

INTRODUCING THE MONERODO OS

http://nodebox.link/

What is it? Monerodo is a portmanteau (because I love them and love that word) of Monero and Node (well, esperanto for node).

Now you can take any old PC and turn it into a monero node, monero pool server, and nvidia miner. Instructions on the website.



Its not a GUI... but its not CLI either!!!!

Excellent!

a new option could perhaps be added : Restore your accounts from MyMonero seed

i tried it and i was able to restore a wallet from a 12 words seed from MyMonero (the thirteenth word is unused, checksum only)

the test code is here: https://github.com/Arux-BTT/bitmonero.git
Code:
git clone https://github.com/Arux-BTT/bitmonero.git MyMonero_seed_import
cd MyMonero_seed_import
git checkout MyMonero_seed_import
make release
then a simplewallet compatible with mymonero seed will be able into build/release/bin as usual.
Code:
./simplewallet --restore-deterministic-wallet
follow instructions and type the twelve first words of your mymonero seed (not the thirteenth)
at the end, simplewallet will crash (core dumped) but no matter, wallet is successfully creating.

the mymonero seed:
Code:
hydrogen poker assorted zoom leopard reduce dying umpire broken poker cycling keep poker
and accounts details:
Code:
Account Address (Public)
44QGMttSkGcG2Qr3TPndDPBPFWesapi24XgfwyZzEEm6JHFGcWzLdSFgNcoGqqH1dVaWugYJi7zeZ2uLiQb8uGz1F4wCc8j
View Key (Private)
831528d4eb379fd2bd59df9f1df4c809b8561582a84d32ffed2a631b487c1e06
Spend Key (Private)
56d36638130b02f0ee8bc902790bec2669e4b756ae7772771971719e826c5b0d

simplewallet in action: (notice that the last word ("poker" in this example) is missing, seed is twelve words only)



it's crashing but a relaunch later:



funds are spent without MyMonero

a little bug with viewkey command:



a bash script could certainly automate it.

ps: all credit to warptangent's code

Dollar bills and Credit / Debit cards are very different when to come to privacy / fungiblility vs being digital. With fiat one has a choice either privacy and fungiblility (cash) or digital payments (credit / debit) but not both.  So I would put the dollar bills only in the privacy area and the credit / debit cards only in the digital area.  

Edit: ... and replace Private with Private and Fungible
If we continue we end up with replacing icons with text - fiat money instead of icon of money, gold bricks with something like "precious metals (gold, silver, platinum etc.)", and Bitcon symbol with something like "cryptocurrency (Bitcoin and it's forks)" Smiley It will never end.

Any suggestions to replace words digital, private and decentralized with icons? Smiley

There is space to put short notes on privacy, decentralized currencies and digital money.

Nice work GingerAle!  I think I'll mess around with this on the Raspberry Pi 2 that I have.  Probably can't get around to it until this weekend but looking forward to setting it up.  Thanks for the great contribution to Monero!

OK, a little bit improved for those confused with cash and digital. Dollar bills are symbols of fiat currency.
I was trying to keep it simple as much as possible, not overcomplicate.

For those running into any problems with the monerodo OS, you can file issues on my github:

https://github.com/Gingeropolous/monerodo/issues

And for those that can code bash shell script (oh wait thats anyone who knows linux), don't hesitate to make a pull request Smiley Granted, some of the problems may not be addressable (some deeper setting in some random .conf file), but if you install the iso on a VM (i think it works. fluffypony got it on a VM), then you can get a sense of the architecture. A primary architecture note are the upstart daemonizing files: these are created in /home/bob/monerodo/conf_files, then copied to /etc/init/ . Thats the main thing. Everything is managed via upstart: bitmonerod, the simplewallet instance for the pool server, and the nvidia miner. The pool server itself is managed by forever, but is first managed by upstart. So upstart loads forever which loads the init.js . This is the only way I got it to work. And don't listen to the naysayers. Upstart is great. The ability to load things sequentially is great. There's even a way to modify monero core to release a "synchronized" signal that would initiate the simplewallet daemon, but I dropped that.

If you make a pull request, any users script set will be automatically updated because of the automatic git pull and chmod +x *.sh in the first menu.

I've already received a couple of great suggestions for version 2, so please keep them coming.

A great feature of MONERODO is the built-in pool node. You can run your own pool and effectively solo mine with one or more GPU rigs, or open the pool node to your friends as a private pool. No chance of pool DDoS or pool ripping you off.

Great work GingerAle!

This should make it very easy for anyone to turn an old PC into a Monero node and help the network!
