Download the latest presynced blockchain state:
wget --show-progress -qO- https://blurt-chain.s3.nl-ams.scw.cloud/witness-0.8.2-amd64-latest.tar.lz4 | lz4 -d | tar x
and run
docker start blurtd
@saboin can explain it better
That downloads the blockchain that is presynced for AMD64 processors. The Raspberry Pi’s processor is ARM64, so the presynced blockchain for that has to be made by a computer that has an ARM64 processor.
I’ll be uploading one over the weekend. I can make it with my Mac that has an ARM64 processor.
I will also update the witness setup document so that it covers both processors.
a ok good to know :)
@dotwin1981 has made the presynced blockchains for RasPi in the past whenever we’ve had hardforks, so he’s familiar with the process.
Yes, I've already done it once or twice. :)
Unfortunately I had forgotten to back up everything that had to do with it from my old PC. That's why I'm currently rebuilding the complete documentation. Also with a different Linux. Not the Arch Linux like before but a Debian based one from RasPi for RasPi. :) So now you could also do this on a RasPi3. What I still have running on the side. :)
