Hi to all!
First I have to say that I'm totally new to all regarding bitcoin mining. I bought Raspberry Pi 3 Model B, and GekkoScience 2Pac BM1384 and USB hub with self power (900mA)
I try all different ways to start mining, but non of them works for me (I'm doing something wrong for sure )
Few days ago I found Minera and I was hopping that I will get mining started finally but I was wrong
I did all the steps and when I insert SD card into RPi in booting section I get this error
"[FAILED] Failed to start /etc/rc.local Compatibility.
See 'systemctml status rc-local.service' for details."
And when its all done I see a line

What I did to fix this was:
1) Login with the minera user (default password is minera)
2) Use nano to edit the rc.local
> sudo nano /etc/rc.local
Added a # comment to the lines that get the IP and echo it:
Quote
# Print the IP address
_IP=$(hostname -I | tr -d ' ') || true
printf "Connect to http://%s/minera to manage Minera\n" "$_IP"
printf "Happy mining!\n"
_IP=$(hostname -I | tr -d ' ') || true
printf "Connect to http://%s/minera to manage Minera\n" "$_IP"
printf "Happy mining!\n"
becomes

#_IP=$(hostname -I | tr -d ' ') || true
#printf "Connect to http://%s/minera to manage Minera\n" "$_IP"
#printf "Happy mining!\n"
#_IP=$(hostname -I | tr -d ' ') || true
#printf "Connect to http://%s/minera to manage Minera\n" "$_IP"
#printf "Happy mining!\n"
I only got this problem when I was on wi-fi, but commenting those lines above fixed the rc.local not loading. Additionally, you could add a sleep there.
Thank you!
I finally start mining but I had to get freq to --gekko-2pac-freq 50
Is this normal?
Can I increase freq somehow?
Thx
