## Manual Installation on Linux
1. On a linux distro (like Ubuntu), ensure you have pre-requisites installed:
```
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install python3 g++ zip
```
2. Install platformio (which is usually via wget/curl command).
```
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/platformio/platformio-core-installer/master/get-platformio.py -O get-platformio.py
chmod +x get-platformio.py
python3 get-platformio.py
```
3. Clone the repo https://github.com/meshtastic/Meshtastic-device
4. Change into the Meshtastic-device and then download submodules
```
cd Meshtastic-device
git submodule update --init --recursive
```
5. Activate the Platformio python virtual environment
```
source ~/.platformio/penv/bin/activate
```
6. Build everything (optionally just build what you really need by editing platformio.ini)
```
./bin/build-all.sh
```
7. See the newly built bits in release/archive/firmware-1.2.49.XXX.zip (where XXX is the git commit)
