Just from the traffic on the thread it seems clear interest in the Cube is over.

Sadly the Cube had a short life, mine started mining at the beginning of Jan 2014. It is no longer paying for the electricity and cooling costs most weeks, it is a better deal to buy BTC than pay the electric bill at the moment.

At this point I am about -$100 not considering the PSU cost. But all is not lost, if BTC gains substantially the Cube's efforts will make it profitable overall, I think that will happen.

I really liked the Cube and will miss him. RIP

Dogie, thanks for the great thread and all the help you provided!

Sorry TracerX and Dogie.

I didn't mean to be rude - point taken though.  Just a bit frustrated with my S2.  I never imagined it would not solo mine. 

I have looked at bitsolo and solopool and am not sure of their validity.  There is nothing stopping the pool controller from keeping the bitcoins and to date, no one has found a block.  Of course, it does support everyone's argument that solo mining is a waste of time but I am perplexed that the cgminer running in the S2 BBB cannot be configured to solo mine my local Bitcoin-Qt.  Bitmain came back to me and said they are currently developing BFGminer to run on the S2.  Maybe we will have better success with that.

Anyways, if anyone is out there solo mining correctly with the S2, I would love to hear from you regarding how you got it configured.

Cheers

  Got an S2 for a friend, but figured I would hook it up and test everything before taking it to his place.

I hooked it up and configured it .. no problem.. it hashed away happily until the breaker popped.... (Breaker wasn't overloaded)

Long story short...  I reset the breaker, and went back to the miner.  it was dead dark w/ no power.

I disconnected the AC cord replugged it...  I flipped the switch on the back to off unplugged the cord, let it sit for a while.. plugged it back in, flipped the switch.. still dark...  Then I went  removed the ATX jumper on the 24pin connector... tried that in combination with unplugging / replugging, and the switch on to trigger the PSU...

Initially before plugging everything in I checked everything, cards seated, internals looked very sound and everything was connected.

Not to thrilled about the prospects of what else got hurt when this PSU blew... (I assume the PSU is shot, unless anyone has any other ideas.)

Fun fun fun.. from reading the thread it sounds like there is a good chance the SD is corrupted... They should be mounting everything on that card as R/O and only temporarily switching to R/W when changing settings..

Anyway this sucks... if anyone has any idea's I'd love to hear them.  Sounds like I'm stuck getting a spensive as hell PSU before I deliver this puppy.  Has anyone had good luck getting Juan to swap parts out, or maybe give credit so I can pay the difference and get a real PSU that will work for more than 10 minutes.

Regards,

Rich

On first login pw will be root / blank (blank = no password). It will be set with a pw afterwards.

FW development seems to be handled exclusively by Canaan Creative, and he linked to their software repository in the OP. There is a wiki entry which you may want to read that outlines some of the basics: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Avalon2

Can you guys please tell me where that manual reset switch/button on the Bitmain AntMiner S1 Dual Blade is ?. I went in the interface with 192.168.1.99 and changed my IP address, now I can't access the the devices interface at all. I need it reset back to its factory default.

-Thank you very much.   

I did.  I hooked it up to my tv and there was alot of text going on, but wouldn't take any keyboard inputs, though it did recognize the keyboard and Avalon unit via usb.  It was just hanging there and I couldn't get in via ssh, not having the login and pass or root pass to the rpi image, I just gave up.

I had a computer on 192.168.0.100, I shut it down and was able to putty to the rpi image, however I simply couldn't find the login and password.  Also, the WWW server on it was not running.

SOLO MINING

Back to my question if I may.  I think we have had enough about chips.  With the greatest respect. 

I need to know if anyone has been able to solo mine with the S2 and if so, what was the configuration that was imputed into cgminer. 

Nothing I do seems to work.

Anyone?

Dogie's you must know this one?

Ta

I have the RPI's address that's not the issue.  The issue is the www interface is non-existant.

Does anyone have a pre-compiled version of cgminer that is avalon2 enabled for windows?  I need to get this thing started somehow while I figure the rest out, or no ROI.

Hey guys

I used the RPI image, it' on my network as 192.168.0.100 but I get nothing using a web browser.
I can access it using putty, but I don't have the root password.

Please help!

Ah, I spoke to soon, I updated my miner configuration and the ---xx-- are back!  It's dropped to 960 GH/s average as well.

Guessing Dogie can update the guide since Black Arrow has nothing imminent releasing.   

Missed another ship date....

Still think it should be stickied/pinned...this is an invaluable resource.

I question the D+ rating of AMT.

They've delivered only a fraction of the miners to users.  Out of the fraction of miners delivered,  a majority of them don't work.

They have not provided a single customer with a user.

They also provide zero communication to users not only about the status of their purchase but provide nothing for post-delivery support.

I think a rating of Z would be more appropriate.

At the risk of sounding like a complete noob... if you can change things like miner configuration and ip address, why not the password, wouldn't that just require an update to the luci interface with the appropriate commands?

I don't think there is a fix for this... perhaps BITMAIN will release an updated firmware soon (hint, hint)... hopefully.

Do you accept escrow? Why not sen dogie one machine for review, he's trusted member and done many reviews for different manufacturers? I can also do review=)
