Sure, you can do that too.  Or you can edit the .bat file and run it.

Just run that command line in the CGMiner directory and it should start mining.

Start mining to solo.ckpool.org first.  Once you get that to work correctly then move on to your Bitcoin core node.  There are several threads on how to set that up.  But get mining to solo.ckpool.org first to make sure your equipment is setup correctly.

It  doesn't really matter.  ckpool pool adjusts automatically so that you submit about 18 shares per minute.

Minimum difficulty just prevents large miners from swamping a pool when they start mining.

Have a price point in mind?  Would it still be quiet?

Also I live by Miami now, quite a bit warmer than Wisconsin would that be a problem you think?

They  did kick out some heat when I was using them.  Had to open a window in the winter in Wisconsin.  Well I hope you get the other one to work too.

Dave,
What mining software are you using?

Those two miners have different firmware on them so one will work with CGMiner and one won't.  I couldn't get either to work with mainline BFGMiner.  So I had to use the old BFL supplied hacked version of BFG Miner.

Your asking about Altcoin and GPU mining  in the  Bitcoin only section.  Per the pinned rules you need to post in the altcoin section.
Good Luck

That whitepaper should answer many of your questions.  At least it should help you to properly define some terms that you are misusing.

Anyway there is also a podcast that helps explain Bitcoin as well and I recommend it.

Sounds like you  need to start with reading  Satoshi's white paper.  It can be found here in several languages.

I'm pretty sure all of us here are using  the standard Raspbian OS.  Why not just give that  a try?

Edit: Or was the Lite version  working for you initially?

I just read your original message.  You may have a bad or corrupted SD Card.  Have you tried reformatting it and reloading?  Or may try a different SD Card.

I think he was wanting his bestshare stat reset after each block was found on the network, hence the every 10 minute thing came up.

I'm using a Pi 4 to run CGMiner for my two R606's. Along with an ATX Power supply that makes a pretty good kit.

Pi's have often been used as a controller for ASIC miners.  Plus they have allot of other uses too.  CPU consumption for CGMiner is very low.

There is no all in one kit ready to go.

But, Sidehack's R606 and a Pi 4 would be an excellent candidate for what you want.  You can find it here.

Setting up the Rasberry Pi 4 would be a really good thing for kids to do and they could do allot of other projects with that as well.

I like your idea, good luck with it.

Try posting in the Newpac thread for support.  I would probably try to lower the frequency and/or increase cooling.

I wish you all luck!

That's the biggest drop I remember seeing.  Strange that it dropped after a decent price rise.

Well, it would be very troubling if you didn't know.

Send another pic when you get it populated.

Looks like fun!
