 At first, it will ask you to connect to a wireless network if you're not already connected via LAN. If you aren't connected via LAN, simply connect via Wifi. Then it will ask you if you want to 'download updates during installation' I usually leave this checked by default. At first, it will ask you to connect to a wireless network if you're not already connected via LAN.

 +**use the username qortal** if you wish to have the **automation scripts setup by the install script to work correctly.** if you do NOT use the the username **qortal** then you will have to **manually moodify the crontab** in order for **the automation to work correctly.**
  
 When you get to the window for disk setup, you will choose **Erase Disk and Install Ubuntu** to perform a full format/installation with Ubuntu as the ONLY OS on the drive. By default it should choose your HDD/SSD unless you have multiple drives on your system, in which case it will give you a **choice of which drive to use**. This is **up to you**, you will choose whichever drive you want Ubuntu to be installed on. Ideally you will choose an **SSD of at least 64GB** or more, to install your Ubuntu installation. Anything smaller and you'll have issues with Qortal running on the same drive, unless you run in topOnly mode for the core. Larger is better. :) When you get to the window for disk setup, you will choose **Erase Disk and Install Ubuntu** to perform a full format/installation with Ubuntu as the ONLY OS on the drive.

 +====notes====
  
 +If you did **not use the username 'qortal** during your installation, then the **automation for the auto-fix scripts** will **not work** until you **do the following**
  
 +-Open crontab editor
  
 +<code> crontab -e</code>
  
 +It will ask you which editor you would like to use, choose **nano** (generally option 1.)
  
 +Once you do that it will take you to the crontab, **edit any of the lines that have /home/qortal** and replace that with **/home/your-username-here**
  
- +To **save and exit** use **cntrl+x** then **Y** and **ENTER**, once you have **done this** your **automation will function as intended.
