In 2018 I made a tutorial for getting a Bitcoin full node up and running on Linux, and I provided a complete step-by-step process, along with explainers for how to use & understand the bash shell, and what certain commands and their flags did. It’s been 3 years since, and and what you’re reading now is the updated version.
Most of the screenshot links are broken, this is now a 3 year old version of a 6 year old tutorial :P
I'm a retard at Linux, but I found Umbrel very easy to install and use a node on my laptop.
