Title: VertcoinBAMT
Post by: mousebat on February 10, 2014, 08:53:57 PM
Hi All,

I've modified the popular litecoinbamt 1.5 debian based distro to use vertminer-gpu from Bufius:
https://github.com/Bufius/vertminer-gpu

I was going to start from scratch with a 64bit base but time is limited and people need an easy solution to mine vertcoin now:

You can download here:

I've removed some of the bitcoin bamt legacy stuff from the perl scripts (m/gpumon, mother, common etc...).

You'll need a usb stick greater than 2gb and just like other BAMT versions if you're on windoze use http://sourceforge.net/projects/win32diskimager/ or similar - or if you're on *nix, god bless you, dd.  If you're using a mac /dev/rdiskX with dd to speed up the transfer...

This works best with R9 chipset cards and is using the 14.1 catalyst drivers but I've tested on my 7950's and it works fine - eventually, if I get the time, I'll be adding the nVidia drivers, a way to switch back to straight Scrypt coins from gpumon or the web GUI and a new Twitter Bootstrap based interface that get's its data straight from the sgminer/vertminer api. Also will try implement a way to edit config files from the web GUI but that might mean having to add mysql and more bloat...

Let me know if there's anything I should, or should not have done - I'm knew to this and don't really deserve much praise yet but let me know what works and what doesn't and I'll try to fix it...

thank you so much this was the only vert bamt distro that worked for me (tried everything I could find)
Is there an easy way to switch between scrypt-n and scrypt mining?
