1 you don’t need two machines, one linux machine is ok
2 once you get your genesis block , it is still not Synced,it is too be change long hours after have serveval blocks and other node.
3 you can try in one linux. Don’t care Status, just focus on the genesis block.
4 Before you get genesis block, you can see here to monitor the process.
5 3 plots is too tiny

You can use my GitHub GitHub - HiveProject2021/chives-blockchain: Chia blockchain python implementation (full node, farmer, harvester, timelord, and wallet)
I prepare 12T to boot up.
Monitor the proof records, too easy and too difficult both not make the genesis block.
Need a balance with you numbers of your plots.

thank you for your reply,sir!My linux disk is too small,win disk is big enough ,could i run timelord in linux,but 10t plot for potting in win ？Does it as the same？

53

Yes, it also worked.

54

thank you sir,i will have a try

56

1 3T plot is enough.
2 wait for sync is not relative to make genesis block.
3 once have records in Last Attempted Proof, means it works.

DNS Introducer?provid ip node?

59

Do you see that you can start a introducer without extra installation?

$ chia start --help
Usage: chia start [OPTIONS] [all|node|harvester|farmer|farmer-no-
                   wallet|farmer-only|timelord|timelord-only|timelord-
                   launcher-only|wallet|wallet-only|introducer|simulator]...

Options:
  -r, --restart  Restart running services
  -h, --help     Show this message and exit.

As @George mentioned, you can also setup a static domain that resoves to all your public nodes…

It is very easy.
Thanks so much.

How to setup dns-introducer? For flaxnetwork if lookup using command > nslookup dns-introducer.flaxnetwork.org, will showing the list of node. Just tried the code from https://github.com/sipa/bitcoin-seeder.git but it’s not working with chia.

62

Go to your domain management of your hoster and add for every full node a A/AAA record with the desired domain. All A/AAA record will have the same domain, so that if you resolve that domain, for example with nslookup, you will get a list of ip addresses of all your full nodes.

64

1 go see the debug.log file
2 you said you used window, did you repacking it in windows?

65

Now, I just try to restart the chain use Just one plot.
It have found proof but not genesis block made. Just wait a day to see the result.

66

Your Linux Verion? Ubuntu 20?

67

yes， Ubuntu 20，and i build client in windows，because linux computer disk is too small

68
