Start DigiNode Setup

Raspberry Pi users should follow the instructions here.

For Ubuntu / Debian, paste this command into the terminal:

curl -sSL setup.diginode.tools | bash

  • Ubuntu Server 64-bit is recommended. For Debian, you will need to first install sudo. See System Requirements for more info.
  • It is recommended to create a new user account called 'digibyte' for your DigiNode. This will isolate your wallet in its own user account.
  • Run the setup command as user: 'digibyte' (Do not run as root).
  • Windows Terminal is recommended for Windows. iTerm2 is recommended for Mac.
  • To customize your DigiNode, see Advanced Features.
