Open Terminal:
Open Spotlight (press ⌘ + Space).
Type "Terminal" and press Enter.
You can check your system properties by entering the following commands:
Check Storage Type: system_profiler SPStorageDataType
Checking Hardware Properties: system_profiler SPHardwareDataType
Check GPU Type: system_profiler SPDisplaysDataType
Linux Users: Check System Configuration
Open a terminal.
You can check system information using the following commands:
Storage Information: df -h
Hardware Information: sudo lshw
CPU Bilgisi: sudo lshw -class processor
Memory Information: sudo lshw -class memory
Running Fizz Node Client
Installing Fizz Node Client
Once your registration is complete, you need to download and run the Fizz node client.
On the page where you registered, download the fizzup.sh script.
