(2/2) Copy that file into your USB drive and plug it into the HoloPort. If you are using a virtual machine, you'll be able to do this through a command line tool <--- & bob's your uncle!pic.twitter.com/K8nO0wpEhSShow this thread -
(1/2) After you power up, the HoloPort will automatically detect the drive and go through the setup process behind the scenes.

(2/2) This includes not only things like generating your public and #privatekeys, but also registering with our internal DNS and VPN so that our routing services can connect web users for hosted hApps.pic.twitter.com/Gzm5mlyT8xShow this thread -
During that process, you’ll be emailed a verification link—click it. You will be redirected to a waiting page on your browser indicating that your HoloPort is being registered.pic.twitter.com/Fwek6uFFp9Show this thread -

A note about decentralization
(1/3) We need to take a moment to highlight the way Holo hosting works, so that HoloPort owners understand what's involved.Show this thread -

so What's next?? We hope this process makes sense & works for you. We're looking to improve it however we can—among other things, we're investigating ways to make our setup approach more mobile friendly. In the future, we’ll be sharing screenshots of the admin interface
