XV730 Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 Hi Zerpers, I'm a long time lurker of the forum and recently got hold of a Nano Ledger S device - figured it all out and works great. However in the event the company disappears and my nano goes kaput and i can't get hold of a new one, i wanted to ensure i have a fall back solution available. This led me to the Bip39 tool at the site https://iancoleman.io/bip39/ which further lead me to Ledgers implementation of the tool located below: https://github.com/LedgerHQ/ripple-recovery-tool I'm not the most technically inclined when it comes to software but not a noob either, however the instructions in the site are very sparse for someone with a zero-weak background in software. Can someone please help me get this tool up and running. I've got a dedicated laptop (offline) available to run the final tool, but do not understand how to create/compile it from the github page. Some basic points I'm stuck on to begin with: 1. I have vista on my laptop - do i need windows 7 as a minimum? 2. do i install Node and GIT on to the laptop, or can i install them on my main internet PC to compile the tool? 3. The step 'Get your private key' - asks to download the BIP39 tool, but when i click the link i get a webpage with a tone of html. If someone could provide a dummies guide I'm sure this would be a valuable sticky for others like me :) Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
