Title: Cubieboard 2 / OS?
Post by: Pyr3x on November 01, 2013, 04:12:19 AM
Does anyone know of an OS with bfgminer or cgminer for a Cubieboard 2?

If not can someone help me get it running on it? I am not having much luck.

Thank You

So I managed to compile the latest version of bfgminer on a bare distro. I am going to dump an image of the OS tomorrow if anyone is interested. Right now I have it managing all my BFL equipment and it's doing quite well!

I am getting ready to release MinePeon for the Cubeboard, for a while it will only be a test image released from the forums (http://minepeon.com/forums/ (http://minepeon.com/forums/)) but your more than welcome to download and assist in the testing.

MinePeon 0.2.5 will be for the Raspberry Pi, CubeBoard2 and the Beaglebone Black.  As always, time is my biggest limitation.  Donations don't make enough for me to live on yet so I still need my real job.

Nice. I was just looking into the CubieBoard2 (and 3 (http://cubieboard.org/tag/cubieboard3/)) since the Pi just doesn't seem to cut it with some devices.

The CubeBoard2 is a tad flaky at the moment, more work needs to go into kernel support from the manufacturer whereas the Pi has very mature support.  If I were to pick any of the three though it would be the Beaglebone Black.

Confirmed about the BeagleBone Black.  My primary miner is now my BeagleBone Black (running a bare Debian install), and it works well.  I have a number of USB devices running off it (even got a USB3 hub working well) - it's a FAR better machine than the Pi.
