Thank you for your help! the timeout method is now working and restarting every hour i need to take a deeper look into why it is failing every few hours. i might need to tweek the voltages?

Regards

Paul

while true; do timeout 7200 /home/pi/miner/bfgminer_5.4.2-futurebit2_linux_armv6/start_moonlander2.sh; sleep 3; done

Timeout: failed To run Command '/home/pi/miner/bfgminer_5.4.2-futurebit2_linux_armv6/start_moonlander2.sh': No Such File or Directory?

Please help!!

Can anyone please give an example of running a cron job for BFGminer on RPI to close and reopen every hour.

i have a sh file with this in

#!/bin/bash
./bfgminer --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://hub.miningpoolhub.com:20460 -u xxx.miner1 -p miner1,d=128 -S ALL --set MLD:clock=600

Any help for a Linux noob would be great, a lot of people i know with RPI are having issues with the moonlanders randommly just hash at 0 mh/s until the software is restarted.

Kind Regards

Paul

i looked into the crashing, it has nothing to do with Power. both my hubs can provide enough power, i have stress tested it with plugging 3 Moonlanders 2s into 1 Hub, this ran fine without any speed drop. I now have 2 Hubs running 2 moonlanders each.

i wanted to know if anyone has managed to write a Crontab script that restarts the SH file every 1 or 2 hours? if so how did you do it! any help would be great.

Hey Guys, i have a question!

I have 4 moonlanders on my RPI which seem to crash every few hours.. i am not a linux user and have very little understanding how to write scripts etc.

has anyone managed to get the RPI to restart and run the script file every hour using Grome Schedule or Cron tab? if so could you please provide your command preview. i know a lot of people are having issues getting the start_moonlander2.sh to work 24/7.

i have been googling around and found no real support! Sad i know some people in here are scripting masterminds!

any help would be great, i am a complete noob! i have both the softeare installed and know how to open them also i can jiggle the file paths to point towards where things are installed.

Cheers

Paul

do you know if its possible to do it without having to reboot the PI, i see in this guys thread that it will execute the script while the PI is booting, i would like the script to boot within the Pi desktop not before as i would like the command window to be displayed?

Hey Everyone,

another quick question, i have 4 moonlanders on my RPI running, i am having a issue where after a few hours the start_moonlander2.sh freezes and stops hashing.. does anyone know how to write a Cronjob tab so that the SH script can close once every hour and restart?

if anyone could give me an example of how i should setup in the configure scheduled tasks within Gnome Schedule 2.1.1 GUI

Any help would be really appreciated.

would you recommend changing to another pool like https://www.litecoinpool.org/?

Regards

Paul

hey guys is anyone having issues with the https://litecoin.miningpoolhub.com/?

i been getting a hash rate of 20mh/s for the last 2 days how ever i am not  getting any unconfirmed or confirmed. i am using BFGminer and ASIC moonlander2 usb miners.

i am using these details:

HOST:   hub.miningpoolhub.com
PORT:   20460
Username:   weblogin.workername (replace weblogin to your actual login id)
Password:   worker password. (not important. pool doesn't check this)

Confirmed            0.00000000
Unconfirmed    0.00000000

Kind Regards

the hubs i have are rated to 3A and they are not the cheap super super Chinese ones, i bought the D-link 7 port hubs. i am going to see if i can put 5A thought it and get back to you.

my USB mining rig! using RPi2 - 20mh/s pretty chuffed with the result! pulls 37watts.

does anyone know if its possible to force more AMPS though a USB hub then it is rated at? of coruse to not change the voltage.. (5v)

i am mining on litecoin.miningpoolhub.com, anyone found a better pool?




Cheers

Hello Guys,

i have just started to get into the micro USB mining as a hobby i managed to buy 2 of these bad boys over this weekend.

i was hopeing someone could tell me how to set this up using Raspberry pie?

can anyone please guide me installing bfgminer 5.4 in linux? i have googled around and found posts from 2014 but no real guide to help get it up and running.

Kind Regards

Paul
