Step by Step:

Download script with Linux command:

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ttimt/xmr-stak-cpu-linux/master/run.sh && chmod +x run.sh

Then run the script:

sudo ./run.sh

The download will be at xmr-stak-cpu

cd xmr-stak-cpu/

Before running, we have to change two kinds of memory:

First, add a command to crontab:

sudo crontab -e

Press enter when prompted to choose a text editor

Insert the code below at the bottom line of the file

@reboot sudo sysctl -w vm.nr_hugepages=128 or

@reboot sudo sysctl -w vm.nr_hugepages=256 or

@reboot sudo sysctl -w vm.nr_hugepages=512

Try not to surpass your RAM size 25%

Secondly, open:

sudo nano /etc/security/limits.conf

Edit the lines at the bottom

* soft memlock 262144

* hard memlock 262144

Image for second:

Now restart with

sudo shutdown -r 0

After that, log back into your Linux

Finally, go to the downloaded xmr-stak-cpu folder and run the mining software with

sudo ./xmr-stak
