-How to install Qortal on debian linux (ubuntu, mint, debian, debian-based distros.)+**Please note:** after setting up your computer as a node, be sure to review the [[Port Forwarding]] guide to ensure your node functions optimally.  
 + 
 +===== Installing Qortal via CHD's 'rebuilt-machine.sh' script ===== 
 +Note - This script does more than simply install Qortal, it sets up an entirely customized installation, desktop environment, custom icon theme, and more. 
 + 
 +1. Open the Terminal, and input the following command, then push ENTER. 
 + 
 +<code>cd && wget https://gitea.qortal.link/crowetic/QORTector-scripts/raw/branch/main/rebuilt-machine.sh && chmod +x rebuilt-machine.sh && ./rebuilt-machine.sh </code> 
 + 
 +2. Input your login password when requested (you will not see anything being typed in while inputting passwords in the terminal) then sit back and relax as your computer becomes a customized Qortal machine! 
 + 
 +=====Installing Qortal with the assistance of the (legacy) Qortal UI ===== 
 + 
 +====Step 1- Download the Qortal UI AppImage from qortal.org ====  
 + 
 +====Step 2 - Make the AppImage Executable (either right click it, properties, permissions, allow executing as a program checkbox) ==== 
 + 
 +====Step 3 - Run the AppImage file ==== 
 + 
 +===Say YES to installing Java, if your machine doesn't have Java installed, it will download and use a portable Java installation. Say YES to download the Qortal Core. === 
 + 
 +That's it, Qortal Core will start, bootstrap, and get synchronized, and you're good to go! 
 + 
 +===(additional optional visual improvments) === 
 + 
 +If you would like to have your Qortal-UI be named Qortal-UI, simply rename the AppImage file to Qortal-UI. (you do not need to keep the .AppImage extension)  
 + 
 +If you would like to have the logo attached to the Qortal-UI, right click the file, properties, click the 'blank logo' icon, and browse for the qortal.ico file. It can be found in [[official_images_press_kit|]] 
 + 
 +You may also create 'launchers' so that the Qortal-UI will be in the menu, if you wish to do this, go to your menu editor, and create a new item, call it Qortal UI, then browse to the Qortal-UI AppImage file, attach the logo, and create. That's it! 
 + 
 + 
 + 
 +=====Old/Manual Method - install Qortal-UI and Qortal Core=====
