- | **Installation Instructions: | ||
- | - Format SD card with FAT32/FATX using SD Memory Card Formatter | ||
- | - Use 7-zip to extract the image, you will get a file with **Disc icon** (circling in picture){{:: | ||
- | - Open Balenaetcher, | ||
- | - Once it finish flashing the image. Plug the SD or SSD drive to pi4 and power on the Pi 4. (It needs some time to start up) | ||
- | - Power on the Pi 4 and wait a few minutes to start. In the mean time log into your router to see what the IP address is of your Pi 4 if you plan on going headless (ask Qortal tech for help finding your IP if you do not have access to your router). If you are using a monitor, keyboard and mouse ignore last. | ||
- | - If you are going headless (using a different computer to log into the pi 4 desktop) then on windows open up Remote Desktop Connection. If on Linux or Mac download your version of windows remote desktop. | ||
- | - Enter the IP for your Pi 4 and click connect. Click yes when it asks about connecting and if you trust the certificates. | ||
- | - Log in. Username: pi Password: dmax911e | ||
- | - Open the terminal and enter the command line: sudo raspi-config. Scroll down to advanced settings hit enter, select expand file system and select it. When it is done select exit and it will ask for you to reboot. Click yes. | ||
- | - Open terminal and input the commands below: | ||
- | |||
- | * Download qortal core: | ||
- | < | ||
- | unzip qortal.zip</ | ||
- | * Download bootstrap: | ||
- | < | ||
- | chmod +x *.sh | ||
- | wget https:// | ||
- | 7z x db.7z</ | ||
- | * Start the core: (If it looks like the image below, that means your core is running now!) | ||

- | **How to Run Qortal UI ** | ||
- | |||
- | Type in Terminal (Press Enter after each commands): | ||
- | < | ||
- | cd qortal-ui | ||
- | yarn run server && </ | ||
- | |||
- | Then go to the web browser. Type localhost: | ||
- | |||
- | For Headless, the above UI web browser login instructions do not apply. You must set up a tunnel in putty and connect to your pi4. | ||
- | Then open UI on Windows or Mac and login. | ||
- | |||
- | See SSH tunneling: | ||

- | **BrooklynR Kernel features:** | ||
- | |||
- | - Hardened the Kernel security. No more local exploits. | ||
- | - Locked the memory copy b/w internal and external memory devices | ||
- | - Added Entropy hardware for maxed out entropy. Far more than an i7 Processor. | ||
- | - Thermal control. Yes you can add fans and they will auto start when the temp hits 51C | ||
- | - SPH implementation of crypto functions | ||
- | - Updated crypto algorithms | ||
- | - Full SoC encryption enabled on board the CPU for UI and Core speedup | ||
- | |||
- | Crypto is now fully accelerated. | ||
- | |||
- | The Kernel version with this release is 5.12.6 hybrid. | ||
- | 32 is enabled by default. You will not need 64 bit. | ||
- | This release can guarantee uptime of years without a single reboot or stall. | ||
- | |||
- | No one will ever need to reboot a Pi 4 anymore, provided you use the recommended power bricks. | ||
- | Able to mine Monero on it as well. | ||
- | |||
- | Users have option of Headless release or with a full featured accelerated Desktop GUI Release |
