Error trying to set up a new node on ubuntu

Hi Yemo,

You have to create the directories first. Did you first make the necessary directories as is recommended? If not:

  1. First create a temporary install directory. From your home dir type mkdir inst
  2. Then go back to your home dir ~ and type mdkir node. This will create the node directory.
  3. Then cd into the node directory and do mdkir data.

Download the install_master_linux-amd64.tar.gz move it into the ~/inst directory you just created and unzip the package tar -xf install_master_linux-amd64.tar.gz
