Will it work to use a relative path instead? That'd be a little less brittle.

+    Mordor is a PoW Ethereum Classic testnet. A testnet allows developers to perform specific tests. Developers may want to test protocol changes, test a smart contract, or interact with the network in anyway that does not require real EthClassic (ETC)—just don’t test on mainnet, mainnet is for production.

All three of these paragraphs are Go installation instructions. I'd prefer to defer simply to one -- the official Go docs -- rather than provide 3 redundant options which will need updating. The important part here -- and thanks for updating it :) -- is the minimum Go version.

+So, you’re running a Mordor node and mining testnet mETC. Woohoo! An easy way to double check you’re actually growing a Mordor testnet balance is on [Blockscout](https://etc-mordor.blockscout.com). Just search the account address you created earlier.
