Hi all. Looking for some help setting up a live USB wallet. Totally new to Linux so please bare with me and feel free to point out the obvious if i am missing it. I have tried searching for the last two days but i am going round in circles and no closer to getting this running.
When I download and install the USB using Unetbootin in windows 7, i picked 12.04 live and installed to a 8gb USB stick giving 6 gig persistence thinking that can be used for the blockchain files.
I get it installed and on first boot to USB i open a terminal and
The following packages have unmet dependencies: bitcoin-qt : Depends: libboost-filesystem1.46.1 (>= 1.46.1-1) but it is not installable Depends: libboost-system1.46.1 (>= 1.46.1-1) but it is not installable Depends: libboost-thread1.46.1 (>= 1.46.1-1) but it is not installable E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
So i scrapped that one and installed an older version from the Unetbootin
10.04 LTS says it can't install due to unmet dependencies - libqrencode3 which is not installable. Broken Packages.
Newish to Bitcoin, aim to be mining soon and finding this forum quite informative so far. Will be looking for help setting up a live USB environment soon.
