Title: ANTMINER/RPI/CGMINER Post by: phoenixsilverbird on December 29, 2013, 09:41:15 PM I am interested in running 4 antminer u1 on my raspberry pi.
It states that they require CGminer, and a certain driver. Please can somebody explain how I can set up the special cgminer version for these found here: https://github.com/AntMiner/AntGen1/tree/master/cgminer The driver I can handle, but I have no clue how to install this CGminer on RPI. If anyone can help, I'm a newbie. Thanks! Title: Re: ANTMINER/RPI/CGMINER Post by: -ck on December 29, 2013, 09:49:50 PM Cancel that. I didn't see it was the U1 as Nwoolls just pointed out. Title: Re: ANTMINER/RPI/CGMINER Post by: nwoolls on December 29, 2013, 10:43:42 PM The antminers have to run on the tplink router that's included with them and the software is built in. There is no point trying to build the software yourself to run on anything else. The AntMiner U1 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=380946.0)?

How can I make them work with rPi? Title: Re: ANTMINER/RPI/CGMINER Post by: rostbiffen on December 30, 2013, 12:22:06 AM Yes, 4 of the antminer U1. How can I make them work with rPi? i am also interested in this, i wait for my U1:s to arrive so i cant try it myself. try download cgminer from this link using GIT: https://github.com/bitmaintech/cgminer after that, try to compile it youself, what i have heard there is not so big changes in this forked version of cgminer so hopefully this will work.

I have one coming this week and thought I missed some special hardware. Thanks for clearing that up ;D Title: Re: ANTMINER/RPI/CGMINER Post by: phoenixsilverbird on December 30, 2013, 01:14:20 AM From what I've heard recently, I might not even break even if I buy and mine with the A1s

FWIW, my October KNC Saturn has returned and then some!! 13BTC and counting. Edit: Reread and you may be correct. I always buy stuff in fiat then convert to BTC. So if BTC was $200 at purchase, then no it has probably not returned BTC. Title: Re: ANTMINER/RPI/CGMINER Post by: nwoolls on December 30, 2013, 04:22:27 PM Edit: Reread and you may be correct.

Not hardware that you wait and see what the difficulty is when you receive it, if you receive it. |
