Thank GNUtransfer the loan us a VPS and other resources to write this article.

In this post we present a script to run automatically in the background bitcoind at system startup, the script is here bitcoin-init-0.1.0.tar.bz2

This script works in Debian Squeezy, Debian Wheezy and Ubuntu Precise Pangolin maybe also in other versions but we have not tested.
NOTE: Works with bitcoind 0.6.x, 0.7.x and 0.8.x recommend version 0.8.x can see our previous articles on how to install it on Debian How to install bitcoin 0.8.0 on debian squeeze amd64 How to install bitcoin 0.8.0 on debian wheezy amd64 and Ubuntu install instructions are here

Now if we start with the installation of the script.

NOTE: The steps are mostly the same as for those in our previous article «How to install bitcoin 0.8.0 on debian squeeze amd64»

Thank GNUtransfer the loan us a VPS and other resources to write this article.
While it is a bit tedious to install bitcoind 0.8.0 on Debian Wheezy, improvements in this version make it worth the work, performance is far superior to previous versions and I/O disk have been significantly reduced.
Now let’s start with the installation.
