Znode setup guide improvement

[o0oBluePhoenixo0o]

Hi,

These are my findings after a day trying to setting up my Znode. Much appreciate for the FAQ but I believe it is still a bit ... vague. Here are the points:

Assuming you have a running VPS:

1. Clone git branch "znode" into a different folder ( if you already have cloned the core_upgrade branch)
2. cd into the folder you just cloned (main working environment)
3. Install all the packages from the requirement list (https://github.com/zcoinofficial/zcoin/blob/znode/README.md)
4. Run "autogen.sh" and "configure" there. Then "make" and "make check"
5. Set up the conf file (step 4 in znode setup https://github.com/zcoinofficial/zcoin/blob/znode/ZNODE.md) BEFORE RUNNING DAEMON TEST NET(step 3). You should delete out the znode=1 and privatekey line
6. Proceed to generate private key and continue through the steps as normal

I've uploaded a Docker recipe that compiles binaries.
Just copy and paste two lines.

Hi,

This is the official guide to setting up a Znode

https://zcoin.io/zcoin-znode-setup-guide/

And do you actually need to compile and build the code?

Runnable binaries are here:

https://github.com/zcoinofficial/zcoin/releases/tag/v0.13.5.8 and click zcoin-qt-0.13.5.8-linux64.tar.gz

You could also use wget from your home directory

wget https://github.com/zcoinofficial/zcoin/releases/download/v0.13.5.8/zcoin-qt-0.13.5.8-linux64.tar.gz

May we close this issue please?
