Assuming you have a fresh FreeBSD (or a jail) installed, and you are logged in as root, download the latest version of BIP148 enabled bitcoin sources from here as .tar.gz file and untar it. As of writing it is v0.14.1-uasfsegwit0.3.tar.gz.
fetch https://github.com/UASF/bitcoin/archive/v0.14.1-uasfsegwit0.3.tar.gz tar xzvf v0.14.1-uasfsegwit0.3.tar.gz cd bitcoin-0.14.1-uasfsegwit0.3
Next the documentation in ./doc/build-unix.md tells us which packages we have to install to compile bitcoin. Let's install them:
pkg install autoconf automake libtool pkgconf pkg install boost-libs openssl libevent pkg install gmake
And now compile and install bitcoind:
./autogen.sh ./configure --without-gui --without-miniupnpc --disable-wallet gmake gmake install
Now start bitcoind
bitcoind -daemon
Make sure your server is reachable over port 8333.
To check your node go to bitnode and enter the ip address of your node. You should get a result similar to this:
Many thanks, helped me to get up and running. Should I run the tag or the branch?
