Step by Step instructions on installing Bitcoin Core 0.14 on Raspberry Pi Zero and 1/2/3? I couldn't find a concise tutorial on how to setup Bitcoin Core v0.14 on Raspberry Pi Zero or 1/2/3. Let's say I have a brand new raspberry pi without any image flashed. What are the step by step instructions to get this thing running as a Bitcoin Core node? Assume I only have a 4GB SD card as I noticed that the new .14 version of Core has the ability to prune the blockchain all the way down to 500mb.
This is a guide I used to install a full node on a Raspberry Pi 3B with 1GB of RAM.
You have to compile the code and therefore need a RAM swap on an external HDD. Make sure it is mounted correctly, or it will wear out the sd card!
