While working on v0.18.3.2 the other day, I published a script to automate reproducible Monero builds in Split Linux.

It’s not a highly-adopted Linux distribution and so when v0.18.3.3 quickly followed I wondered how I could help those of you who want to stick with what they already use.

I figured you can build entirely from the Live environment if you have at least 16GB of RAM:

  1. Boot a copy of Split Linux from a pendrive
  2. Ensure you’re connected to the Internet (/etc/wpa_supplicant/ for Wifi)
  3. Mount a tmpfs: mount -t tmpfs -o size=12G lxc /var/lib/lxc
  4. Download and run the linked script
  5. Copy the results to where you need them

I hope this gets you on track to joining us as a signer for the official Monero binaries.
