Title: What is the best/easiest way to run a gridseed to mine both sha and scrypt Post by: yodaone902 on September 12, 2014, 05:17:22 PM my main computer is a macbook pro but i want to run a gridseed 5 chip of a rasberry pi, i'm aware i could do this via minepeon or scrypta but these only use the scrypt mining capacities of the gridseed.
What would you suggest i use in order to mine both algorithms at the same time Also, as i am using a mac i cannot use windisk32, what is a good sd card writer for mac os. Thanks in advance for anyone that can help mr noob here.

Well i currently have asic sha usb chips that i was using on a usb hub but am selling those, my only other peice of mining equipment is the gridseed Title: Re: What is the best/easiest way to run a gridseed to mine both sha and scrypt Post by: byt411 on September 12, 2014, 08:10:53 PM my main computer is a macbook pro but i want to run a gridseed 5 chip of a rasberry pi, i'm aware i could do this via minepeon or scrypta but these only use the scrypt mining capacities of the gridseed.

I don't pay for electricity (legitimate not illegal reason) what would you suggest as an alternative?

Typically gear that does both will make more at Scrypt. Honestly i have not looked into to much gear that does both I know there are dual miners ect. But typically the asics are geared to one segment of mining find out which algo. is best per day.

If you plan to use a raspi, get raspbian going (use google, there will be a few things to install to get cgminer going, works the same for cgminer dmaxl), then install from git https://github.com/dmaxl/cgminer/ (https://github.com/dmaxl/cgminer/) Also make sure to install "screen" etc Then, SSH in and run: screen -dmS SHA256 var/www/cgminer --sha256 -o stratum+tcp://etc -u user -p pass -o --gridseed-options=baud=115200,freq=750,chips=5,modules=1,usefifo=0,btc=16 screen -dmS SCRYPT var/www/cgminer --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://etc -u user -p pass -o Noting to of course change /var/www to wherever you build cgminer-dmaxl to. |
