Ah ok. That was in the original document, so I left it in. Will take a note to have that removed.

Can I ask a bit clearer timeline this time? It’s getting late here in Finland.
Ah sorry, I didn’t mean today. Might be Monday now.

Ok, the fact that a release was made ready a few hours ago, instead of letting nightly process do it’s thing, got me excited…
Good to know, thanks!
So, I installed Gitbash, just clicked “next” through all the installation options. Opened it up and pasted in the curl…line from the comnet post.
This is what happened:
What should I try next? Thanks for any help (this is very exciting!)

Ah - the same mistake I used to make
Skip the initial dollar sign $ - its the linux user prompt - bit like c:\ on windows

I got a little further - i think the software installed, I shut and opened Gitbash, and pasted in the first command that seemed to go ok. Then met with error messages again.

now this:
$ curl -so https://raw.githubusercontent.com/maidsafe/safe_network/master/resources/scripts/install.sh | bash
curl: no URL specified!
curl: try ‘curl --help’ or ‘curl --manual’ for more information
Copy that command from the top post again, but skip the initial $ sigm and try again.
it seems to put the $ in by itself and I can’t delete it
Type it out by hand carefully then.
Post a screenshot
$ rm -rf $HOME/.safe
seems to work and doesn’t return an error
but then should i paste in
curl -so https://raw.githubusercontent.com/maidsafe/safe_network/master/resources/scripts/install.sh | bash
or
safe networks add comnet https://sn-comnet.s3.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/node_connection_info.config

The top one: curl...
When you did rm -rf $HOME/.safe you deleted it so you need to install it again.

Do this first.
not or, AND
then
safe networks switch comnet
and just to be certain
safe networks check
should show something like
willie@gagarin:~/.safe$ safe networks check
Checking current setup network connection information...
'comnet' network matched!
Current set network connection information at '/home/willie/.safe/node/node_connection_info.config' matches 'comnet' network as per current config
willie@gagarin:~/.safe$ safe networks
