Title: Raspberry Pi - BFG Miner help - Noob Post by: Mastequila on October 21, 2016, 02:16:26 AM Hi all, wondering if someone can help .
I am running a scrypt miner ( mining Gulden ) and trying to mine a pool ( http://nlg.hardcoreminers.com/index.php?page=gettingstarted ) . I am very new to Linux and all the commands , I pretty much have to look everything up . I have downloaded bfgminer onto the raspberry Pi , the program shows up under directory listing as " bfgminer " . Per the instructions on the link provided I am to type : ./bfgminer --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://stratum.eu.nlg.hardcoreminers.com:3026 -u Weblogin.WorkerName -p WorkerPassword Here is the error I get : -bash: ./bfgminer: Is a directory Again I am a noob , maybe I am missing some other software needed ? Any help would be appreciated. ThankYou ! Title: Re: Raspberry Pi - BFG Miner help - Noob Post by: desci on October 24, 2016, 08:25:44 AM You should run that in the bfgminer folder
Which in your case happen to be ~/bfgminer, so you should use this: Code: ./bfgminer/bfgminer Instead of this: Code: ./bfgminer The "proper" way to do it would be to: Code: pi@raspebrrypi:~ $ cd bfgminer You have to change Weblogin.WorkerName to your login data found on the My Account / My Workers area. For example: Code: -u desci.1 -p x So the full command for me would be: Code: pi@raspebrrypi:~ $ ./bfgminer/bfgminer --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://stratum.eu.nlg.hardcoreminers.com:3026 -u desci.1 -p x If bfgminer is actually installed in the system, however, you should run it without the leading dot and slash, like so: Code: pi@raspebrrypi:~ $ bfgminer --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://stratum.eu.nlg.hardcoreminers.com:3026 -u desci.1 -p x Title: Re: Raspberry Pi - BFG Miner help - Noob Post by: desci on October 24, 2016, 03:03:14 PM I've publicized the scripts I use in the raspberry pi to control the ASIC miners, but the instructions are in brazilian portuguese.
Will eventually translate them and provide a link. |
