  • Extract the files with the archive manager (same as Winzip on Windows). Note the path where the files "monerod" and "monero-wallet-cli" are

  • You only need to do this step once : open a terminal (ctrl+alt+t) and install the required dependencies by typing : "sudo apt-get install libboost-all-dev libssl-dev libevent-dev libdb++-dev". When asked, press the Y key and then Enter to continue

  • Open a terminal and load the path where your binaries are extracted (cf. step 2) by typing : "cd yourPathFromStep2"

  • Load monerod by typing in your terminal : "./monerod". Wait for the synchronization with the network (monerod is updating the blockchain you have downloaded in step 4 or is downloading it from scratch). This can take a lot of time the first time, so be patient

  • Once monerod is synchronized with the network, open a new terminal, change the directory (cf. step 5), and launch monero-wallet-cli by typing "./monero-wallet-cli"

  • Enter the name you want for your portfolio and follow the instructions from the terminal

This is your private key. Write it down and keep it in a safe place!

image17

This is your view key. You need it to create a view only wallet (cf. associated user guide)

image18

This is the address of your wallet

image19 image20 image21 image22 image23

  • To exit monerod or monero-wallet-cli just type "exit" in the associated terminal

Now to access the portfolio you have just created you will have to launch monerod, wait for it to be synchronized with the network, launch monero-wallet-cli, and type the name of your portfolio and your password.
