Here are the Audiocoin Raspberry Pi wallets (headless and Qt) for Raspbian Jessie (v8) as well as a blockchain snapshot. The wallet has been tested on both a Pi2 and Pi3. Since Audiocoin has a great appeal for staking, it makes sense to stake on a Pi at low electricity cost.
Important:
1) Always backup your wallet.dat first before you do anything
2) The wallets were built on Raspberry Pi2/3 (ARM) running Raspbian Jessie (v8) and the instructions and scripts assume you are running as user "pi". It is a pre-requisite to have Jessie installed on your Pi micro-SD card. You can find instructions of how to do this on
https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/ by either installing n00bs and selecting your OS or by downloading the image of the OS. NB! It is important that if you do a fresh install from an older Jessie image, that you first expand your file system with raspi-config. It is the first option in the menu. The default image they provide installs a partition of about 3.5GB and it needs to be expanded to 8GB or you will not have enough space for the installation. However, if you use the later Jessie image from May 2016, the file system will be expanded automatically. It is furthermore always a good idea to select the boot options in raspi-config to boot to a command prompt with authentication. You can then start the graphical desktop with "startx" manually. This helps with issues during upgrades.
3) The installation script installs the required dependencies automatically. Depending when last you upgraded your Pi operating system, some upgrades will pause the upgrade and require you to first read through some text. If this happens, just scroll down and press "q" and the installation will continue.
4) Installation directory where the binaries are installed is ~/opt/audiocoin or /home/pi/opt/audiocoin
5) To run the wallets after installation go to the directory with the wallets and run the wallet file - ./audiocoind for the headless wallet at the command line or click on the Audiocoin icon on the desktop or run the audiocoin-qt wallet file.
6) An Internet connection is required for the installation
7) You need at least an 8GB memory card for the wallet.
8.) The installation itself takes about 45min on an out-of-the-box Pi.
9) You cannot just download the dynamic wallets, you have to run the script to get the dependencies as well else it will not run.
10) The installation script enables the ufw firewall by default, but does not force any special rules. The wallet still works this way with the incoming port blocked. If however you want to enable it to become a fully functional node, un-comment the ufw lines in the script and add the ports you want open (25159 for Audiocoin) and run it again or easier, enable it manually by running the command "sudo ufw enable 25159" at the command line.
11) Always verify the checksums when you download files to make sure it was downloaded ok. To verify the checksums on your Pi, go to the ~/opt/audiocoin folder and execute sha256sum <filename> and md5sum <filename> and compare the values with the values in the checksums.txt file.
12) The Audiocoin wallet can make use of a bootstrap.dat file for quicker initial syncing of the blockchain. The script does not force the installation of the bootstrap file due to its size and you have to manually download it in this case if you want to make use of it. Downloads the file from the link below and place it in ~/.audiocoin and unzip it. The file also work with Windows wallets.
Instructions to use the headless command line daemon wallet:
1) The installation script creates an audiocoin.conf file with the startup settings in it. Go to the folder with the binaries ~/opt/audiocoin and enter ./audiocoind in a terminal window or at the command line to start the server
2) After the wallet has started and loaded the blockchain you can enter the normal wallet commands that you would as in a Windows debug console preceded with ./audiocoind eg. "./audiocoind getinfo".
3) Remember to always make a backup of your wallet.dat file before you do anything like encrypting it
4) To encrypt your wallet run the command ./audiocoind encryptwallet <yourpassword>
5) Once you have the wallet running, blockchain loaded and your wallet with coins on the Pi, then you can kickstart staking by executing .audiocoind walletpassphrase <yourwalletpassword> 99999999 true
Instructions to use the Qt wallet:
1) The wallet works exactly the same as the one in Windows.
To kickstart the installation execute the following commands at the command prompt or in a terminal window on your Pi.
wget https://bitbucket.org/jc12345/audiocoin/downloads/audiocoin_installation_pi.sh && chmod +x audiocoin_installation_pi.sh && ./audiocoin_installation_pi.sh && rm -f audiocoin_installation_pi*
