Thanks mate ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) ! Now, what happened next! So I ran bitcoin-qt and turned off bitcoind.. It was syncing fine, until I tried to restart the program. Then I got: A fatal error has occured. Bitcoin can no longer continue safely and will quit. Exception: St13runtime_error CDB() : can't open database file wallet.dat, error 12 bitcoin in Runaway exception. ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif)

Well, well Now, I ran bitcoin-qt fine the first time and it seemed to be syncing ok. when I closed the program and re-opened it, it wont start anymore. And it says A fatal error has occured. Bitcoin can no longer continue safely and will quit. Exception: St13runtime_error CDB() : can't open database file wallet.dat, error 12 bitcoin in Runaway exception. ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif)

Hi
Thanks for the input everyone..
So I deleted everything and installed as you said.
I wrote bitcoin in the terminal and nothing happened.. Then I wrote bitcoind and files started to appear in the .bitcoin file.
Thats about it?? How do I know that the wallet is syncing??
What do I do next???
I'm so N00BBBB

Thanks for the info.. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I wonder why the usb stick got corrupted?? Is it because of the quality of the chip?? I ran xubuntu off a usb stick for months for my mining rig, it worked well when it worked, but the file table was too easily corrupted and would require reinstalls. I finally just installed it on an actual HDD and it has been far more reliable and robust. If you're using it on a mining machine, I'd recommend this to save yourself downtime and hassle from having to restore your usb stick from a corrupted state. Yes, you do waste some power with an HDD running (though if you have a SSD this is a moot point), but the tradeoff is worth it in my experience anyway. You're also able to upgrade/install any packages you want instead of being limited like you are with a persistent store usb stick install.
If you want it for secure wallet purposes, a live CD boot is probably the way to go as long as you make sure to backup the wallet on a flash drive or something. There's a nice thread in the newbie forum that explains this process.

Anyone know whats causing the drop?? Whats the news?? BFL make a runner ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) Thanks for the great responses guys!! I was thinking of running it from a cd so my wallet didnt leave any trace on a physical drive.. Then again, I ve had no experience, but Id imagine you'd have to save some data somewhere to be able to mine, right? I will be using it to mine with a BFL single. Anyone had any experience mining with BFL on ubuntu? How do I go about it? Do you guys know any guides or vids that explain how to mine with BFL single using BFGminer .. How do I go about installing a wallet and BFGminer on ubuntu?? I found it hard to install anything on ubuntu!!!

Help appreciated in advance.. Ive never used the thing.. I just want to load if off a cd .. Setup a wallet.. And start mining ! Is this possible? Do you know how it can be done... Does it make sense?? ![Undecided](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/undecided.gif) Maybe!

How about the dramatic part, where it says: and discovered that almost all of them are closely related to a single large transaction that took place in November 2010, even though the associated users apparently tried to hide this fact with many strange looking long chains and fork-merge structures in the transaction graph." ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif)

So no solid dates yet then? Nothing to say it will be shipped on the 5 th of November etc.. ??
And no working sample?? Yet!

Seems like there is a bit of a conspiracy involved. The research goes on to state this. "Abstract. The Bitcoin scheme is a rare example of a large scale global payment system in which all the transactions are publicly accessible (but in an anonymous way). We downloaded the full history of this scheme, and analyzed many statistical properties of its associated transaction graph. In this paper we answer for the rst time a variety of interesting questions about the typical behavior of account owners, how they acquire and how they spend their Bitcoins, the balance of Bitcoins they keep in their accounts, and how they move Bitcoins between their various accounts in order to better protect their privacy. In addition, we isolated all the large transactions in the system, and discovered that almost all of them are closely related to a single large transaction that took place in November 2010, even though the associated users apparently tried to hide this fact with many strange looking long chains and fork-merge structures in the transaction graph." Any info on this??? ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif)

Can we get numbers on previous spending rates?
Sorry, what d'ya mean exactly?? Here's the pdf file of the research carried out, apparently, supported by the Citi foundation ( Citi Group ).. http://eprint.iacr.org/2012/584.pdf
