This is first public release of NuBox binaries. So far it covers only nu binaries, packaged for Debian. Packages are deployed with systemd services and are ready to be integrated with future NuBox.
What I need now from testers is to verify that binaries are stable and play well with legacy wallet.dat files. Binaries are built against libdb4.8, which means wallet.dat from official binaries should work out of the box.
Packages for both armhf (raspberry pi) and x86_64 are provided.
To install repository, copy/paste following commands in the terminal:
sudo sh -c "echo 'deb http://peerbox.me/nubox/test-repo jessie main' >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nubox-testing.list"
To install binary:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install nu
In the following text, user is presumed to be âpiâ as it is default on Raspbian. If your user has different name just replace âpiâ with username.
Now you can used it with nud command, or via systemd which will sandbox it and make sure it never dies sudo systemctl start nud@pi.service.
If you install Tor, you can use nud via it too. However, there is no full tor node support right now. sudo systemctl start nud-tor@pi.service
GUI wallet is also installed by default.
To use it , start it with nu command. Or use systemd: sudo systemctl start nu@pi.service

I really want to, but just too busy with the ALPv2 project, NuDroid, Pybot and datafeeds.
Instead I will offer 5 NBT each to the first 3 people posting in this thread, providing a NBT address and showing that they actually installed NuBox (screenshot) and provide some kind of feedback about its usage.
I tried the ânubox -publicâ since it looked nice from you, but it gave me a traceback, because no nu.conf available.
"touch"ed that .conf-file and now above command gave me a better msg: NuBox isnât running
Then I started NuBox via ânubox -startâ, but there is not much feedback. It just stays like that.
I tried other commands (e.g. nubox -addr) in another terminal, but they tell me NuBox is not running, though I started it.
Is there some kind of log file (besides the debug.log) I can look at?
Could it be b/c I havenât yet downloaded the whole NU blockchain? if so, would be great to display such an info to the user also when I type: "nubox -start"
Iâll be downloading the blockchain now via the UI: nu, since I see there progress.
Then close the UI and try the ânubox -startâ again

during NuBox install, for one of my choices I got:
âPoor misguided one. Why are you installing this, then ?â
did you read the choice for which you got this? it is for the name of the box on the network, if you want to call it nubox type yes, you typed no, maybe there should be some smiley faces added, and some âha ha haâ to make it more clear, or change the words so it reads more yoda like?
