Been waiting all day for part 3, Keept that way!!!

[@authcode10]

I've got my node up and running thanks to your videos. Probably wouldn't have bothered otherwise.
Just had the same problem as another commenter that the .cargo folder didn't get created from the install script. Seems the rust installer doesn't actually install anything and you have to run it separately first. All good after that 👍

i signed up for crew member?. what am i expected to do as a crew member

[@jaysonbarrun5184]

Sir is it also from crew member tasks?

[@Oktvy-t7i]

How to run as crew member sir?

[@minerteddy8667]

after installing the script i get this :
cp: target '/home/namadatest/.cargo/bin/' is not a directory
what did i do wrong?

[@thegreatcaptain8644]

me too

[@authcode10]

Rust isn't installing properly from the main script. Run line 53 (curl...) first, then re-run the script and it should all work.
Sorry I can't be more specific but YT keeps deleting my comments with the actual command in!

[@tesnetaan]

@@authcode10 I also experienced that, friend. Thank you for the suggestion, I'll try it

[@Portlegacy]

Good jobe sir, but i am stoked here

[@REET911]

I skipped the user creation part since im not worried about security and ran script as root.
After running the script im getting error cp: target '/home/root/.cargo/bin/' is not a director
I tired running the curl command in line 53 separately like a comment below suggested. Did not help.
I tired to change one line in the script
From sudo cp namada* /home/$USER/.cargo/bin/ - to - sudo cp namada* /root/.cargo/bin/ and i did not get the error. However the wich namada and namada version command snot working so something went wrong in the installation. What can i do?

[@bitcoinafrika60]

great videos Sir! is there a way to participate without installing a node? thanks

[@trentjohn3391]

Anything for crew members?

[@mecrey14]

Are you participating as a pilot or co-pilot?

[@moonmean7955]

hey whisperNode, is it too late to start the node now?
kindly advice on what to do to catch up if it is not too late, I'm part of the Namada Shielded Expedition crew.
thank you.

[@whispernode]

It's not too late, but the binary version have changed and such so this tutorial won't be exactly right.

[@moonmean7955]

@@whispernode is it possible to run the node locally instead of using vps?

[@whispernode]

you can@@moonmean7955, but storage is an issue as well as performance that way.

[@MaxiG]

What to do after node install? have seen that have to make manual txs? is that rigth?

[@zakishaikh6519]

When im trying to check namada version
It giving me error "command not found

[@authcode10]

The script errors at the end because rust doesn't install correctly and so doesn't create the required folders. Install rust separately first using line 53 from the original script.
