Title: 1 LTC Reward ASRock H81M no Ethernet Drivers Post by: PummelHummel on February 10, 2014, 02:39:56 PM Hey guys, I need some urgent help with my ASRock H81M which I can't connect via Ethernet.
If I connect the miner to a monitor and work from the desktop the lower right corner says: "No Ethernet Connection Available", Cable Router ect. are definitely okay, as the cable works just fine if I plug it into one of my other miners. If someon can help me adding the correct drivers (I have no knowelege in Linux whatsover) I will pay a reward of 1 Litecoin!.

http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/H81M/index.de.asp I have not installed anything so far. I have red about that alx stuff too. On the official Smos website. I have no Idea how to install those drivers though. Are there other plug and play mining ditros that I may check?

As for your question, try BAMT, it's a linux based OS that's basically plug and play and designed specifically for mining, it also boots from a USB stick, so you can easily try it out even if you have windows installed already. Here's a link to BAMT: http://guiminer.net/bamt This is a link to SMOS, which is similar to BAMT but has some bugs fixed: http://www.smos-linux.org/installation/ Title: Re: 1 LTC Reward ASRock H81M no Ethernet Drivers Post by: PummelHummel on February 10, 2014, 04:28:56 PM I am using smos already. The Problem ist that I simply cant install those needed drivers as I have no idea how this works under smos
Title: Re: 1 LTC Reward ASRock H81M no Ethernet Drivers Post by: matt4054 on February 10, 2014, 04:36:25 PM My experience is that the tricky part is not really installing alx (on Debian-based systems - Ubuntu, Xubuntu included - backports.org is your friend for 11.x/12.x). The problem I had was getting it done when you are booting from a USB stick. It will probably need to install a new kernel image (as a dependency), then the package tries to link the new kernel with the bootloader (GRUB), and fails.
There is probably a way to get through this, anyone has a good step-by-step tutorial? Thanks! |
