'''Note: Windows is not currently supported, main problem is with Dropbear, which has no known ports for Windows.'''
=== Windows 10 ===
 
'''Note: Windows is not currently recommened for setting up a node due to Dropbear not supporting Windows. What follows is instructions for Windows Subsytem for Linux.'''
 
Due to Dropbear requirements your best bet is to use Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) and follow the instructions for Linux with additional instructions to get WSL set up.
 
First follow the instructions for [https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install-win10 installing] WSL on your Windows 10 PC. For now Ubuntu has been tested and appears to work. SUSE and other WSL flavors have not been tested.
 
Once WSL is installed. Install dependencies (assuming Ubuntu).
 
  sudo apt update
  sudo apt install python
  sudo apt install make
  sudo apt install build-essential
 
WSL doesn't fully support SYSV IPC so fakeroot needs to be rebuilt using tcp.
 
  sudo update-alternatives --set fakeroot /usr/bin/fakeroot-tcp
