On a clean installation of Raspbian, you can run this command to **auto-install the Pi-hole**. Once installed, configure any device to use the Raspberry Pi as your DNS server and the ads will be blocked. ```curl -s "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jacobsalmela/pi-hole/master/automated%20install/basic-install.sh" | bash``` ## Gravity -The [gravity-adv.sh](https://github.com/jacobsalmela/pi-hole/blob/master/gravity-adv.sh) does most of the magic. The script pulls in ad domains from many sources and compiles them into a single list of [over 120,000 entries](http://jacobsalmela.com/blocking-ads-from-120000-domains/). +The [gravity.sh](https://github.com/jacobsalmela/pi-hole/blob/master/gravity.sh) does most of the magic.

As long as you can install dnsmasq and a Webserver, it should work OK. The automated install only works for a clean install of Raspiban right now since that is how the project originated. - -## Optimizations -I am working on some great optimizations to allow the script to run much faster. I also have a bunch of new sources for ad domains but I still need to see if the lists are OK. +This script will work for other UNIX-like systems with some slight **modifications**.
