Re: [ANN] SOIL - fair launch, environmentally conscious, community driven
how to install and configure (testnet) soil - stepwise manual
Here is my fabulous stepwise manual how to install the testnetsoil node, with a few tricks and shortcuts to make my life easier. Shorter manuals are possible, of course - but I developed that one, because I wanted to understand each and every step, and make my system easy to use. And -yet unsolved(*)- as secure as possible, by locking down the firewall. Perhaps this helps anyone tonight.
The firewall iptables (*) I have understood better by now, so I might create a solution for that in the next days. If you know your iptables, feel free to try. My goal was to INPUT & OUTPUT drop ALL, apart from the soil traffic (and ssh of course) ... to create a hyper-secure node.
Anyways, these are the steps that I took to get the testnet node running, attached, DAG generated, and CPU mining enabled:

If anyone wants to make a shorter manual from that - yes please.
My main net address is: 0x8da4fc05ca343e6a41646194e91931d9f413a40c - remember that giving can make you happy :-)
Good luck to everyone for the launch!
EDIT: shorter/newer manuals (will put more here once they are posted)
