Title: gigabyte GA-970A-D3 problem, how to make bamt with unetbootin? Post by: nikoluki on January 14, 2014, 11:33:47 PM Just got mining system with gigabyte GA-970A-D3 mother board. and apparently it sucks and i regret i haven't bought other board :/
I get "boot error" msg trying to boot bamt with disk on key, The same usb key boots on my laptop with bamt. The rig boots fine ubuntu made with unetbootin with the same usb pen drive. I think its lame bios problem, any suggestions how to get bamt/litecoinbamt (tried both versions) working? or how to convert the bamt/litecoinbamt.img into .iso that i could make bootable with unetbootin ? or any link to get .iso of bamt? the dd if= method and the windows method to copy the usb pen doesnt boot with this mother board. i have no harddrive to update bios. + cant mount the litecoinbamt.img to convert it to .iso by myself Code: $ sudo mount -o loop -t iso9660 litecoinbamt1.1.img /mnt/litecoin any suggestions? thank you very much :) Title: Re: gigabyte GA-970A-D3 problem, how to make bamt with unetbootin? Post by: RyZombie on January 14, 2014, 11:40:26 PM I have this motherboard in my farm, it works fine with Litecoin BAMT 1.2https://litecointalk.org/index.php?topic=2924.0 (https://litecointalk.org/index.php?topic=2924.0) and using Win Disk Imager 32http://sourceforge.net/projects/win32diskimager/ (http://sourceforge.net/projects/win32diskimager/) to write the image to the key.
I'd recommend trying to use Litecoin BAMT 1.2 And Win Disk Imager 32. EDIT: Also maybe try with a different usb key too... Title: Re: gigabyte GA-970A-D3 problem, how to make bamt with unetbootin?
