                               Efsn pos mining guide for linux

1. Build the efsn from source code.

  Make sure golang installed first.

  $ git clone https://github.com/zhaojun-sh/efsn.git
  
  $ cd ./efsn/

  $ make efsn

  $ ./build/bin/efsn --datadir ./data1/

2. Run the efsn client.
  
  Make sure copy you keystore file to ./efsn/data1/keystore/ and create a passwdfile in ./efsn/ with your keystore password.

  DO NOT SHARE YOUR KEYSTORE AND PASSWD TO ANYONE.

  Run the efsn console:
  $ ./build/bin/efsn --datadir ./data1/ --port 48888 --unlock 0x0520e8e5E08169c4dbc1580Dc9bF56638532773A  --password passwdfile --mine console

  > web3.fromWei(eth.getBalance(eth.coinbase),"ether")

  > fsnbt.buyTicket({from:eth.coinbase},"keystorePasswd")

  > fsnbt.allTicketsByAddress(eth.coinbase)

  > eth.blocknumber

  If you see "Successfully sealed new block number=****", then new block mined by your node, but need to confirmed by network.

3. Start efsn pos mining.

  Run efsn background:

  $ nohup ./build/bin/efsn --datadir ./data1/ --port 48888 --unlock 0x0520e8e5E08169c4dbc1580Dc9bF56638532773A  --password passwdfile --mine &

  Auto buy the ticket with shellscript autobuytk.sh:

  #!/bin/sh
  while [ true ]; do
  /bin/sleep 15
  /bin/date >>/tmp/autobuytk-20190101.txt
  /home/user/efsn/build/bin/efsn --exec 'fsnbt.buyTicket({from:eth.coinbase},"keystorePasswd")' attach /home/user/efsn/data1/efsn.ipc >> /tmp/autobuytk-20190101.txt
  done

  Run autobuytx:

  $ chmod +x autobuytk.sh 

  $ nohup ./autobuytk.sh &

Check your miner result with blockchain explorer, good luck! 

Hi ZhaoJun,

When i use your script on Ubuntu 18.04 i get a util.go:45: exit status 2 error. I figure this has something to do with compilation of the Geth client. Any idea how i could resolve this error? Would be thankful for your help.
