[MONERO] [MINING] Install and run xmr-stak-cpu on Ubuntu 16.04

XMR-Stak is a universal Stratum pool miner. This is the CPU-mining version and we are using a fresh Ubuntu 16.04 install

sudo apt-get --assume-yes update
sudo apt-get --assume-yes install libmicrohttpd-dev libssl-dev cmake build-essential libhwloc-dev screen git nano
git clone https://github.com/fireice-uk/xmr-stak-cpu.git
cd xmr-stak-cpu
cmake .
make install

cd bin/

chmod +x xmr-stak-cpu
./xmr-stak-cpu

Edit bin/config.txt file and also make sure to edit the following lines:

"pool_address" : "xmr-eu1.nanopool.org:14444",
"wallet_address" : "43x4C2pwcvWgGS9Mb9sCcY9SxFjthrk92YM3dT1VHR8QNc4kpj2MJfGQYAYKWBp2s9R9s6sheFx7DWCUezRkZrehDzenTqd",
"pool_password" : "",

After you have the config.txt edited correctly simply run xmr-stak-cpu. If you run into issues related to mmap this means you need to enable hugepages. To do this type the following commands: 

sysctl -w vm.nr_hugepages=128

nano /etc/sysctl.conf

At the end of the sysctl.conf file add:

vm.nr_hugepages=128
