Linux (Ubuntu 16.04 or above)

1) Install dependencies:

sudo apt update && sudo apt install libsnappy-dev libc6-dev libc6 unzip

2) Create a new user

sudo useradd -m -s /bin/bash nethermind

3) Increase the max number of open files

sudo bash -c 'echo "nethermind soft nofile 1000000" > /etc/security/limits.d/nethermind.conf'
sudo bash -c 'echo "nethermind hard nofile 1000000" >> /etc/security/limits.d/nethermind.conf'

4) Switch to the new user

sudo su - nethermind
wget [LINUX_PACKAGE_URL]

6) Extract the files

7) Switch directories

cd nethermind

8) Start the Nethermind Launcher

./Nethermind.Launcher

RocksDB library does not always load properly on macOS. One (hacky) workaround is to install the latest version of RocksDB by running brew install rocksdb. For the time being it should not cause much trouble but the future RocksDB versions may be incompatible.

5) Get Nethermind: download the latest Nethermind (not NDM) package (list is here: )
