How-to

When the WLS installation is complete and user created with sudo access, login as the new user.

The script can be started by running the below command.

bash -c "$(curl -o - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Bhlynd/Nimiq-Install-Script/master/nimiq-client-install.sh)"

or

bash -c "$(wget -O - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Bhlynd/Nimiq-Install-Script/master/nimiq-client-install.sh)"

Please note, during the installation process the script will request you to enter settings for the client and to run escalated privileges (sudo).

DO NOT RUN THIS AS ROOT

When completed, you can start the Nimiq mining client by typing ./start. To exit the miner press Ctrl-C.

If you need to change any settings, you can do this by editing the start file.

OR

Run the below command to automate the process of editing the start file.

bash -c "$(curl -o - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Bhlynd/Nimiq-Install-Script/master/nimiq-client-reconfigure.sh)"

Have fun :)
