1  Bitcoin / Mining software (miners) / Re: Linux mining distro for the Raspberry PI - MinePeon on: March 03, 2014, 03:57:53 AM
I am hoping that someone can help me. After mining successfully for two months I discovered that my miners were not mining one evening after work.

I am having issues with MinePeon recognizing my two BFL 50 GH/s miners.  It is displaying "No devices found" and when I go to .../miner.php I am shown the following error: "Error getting device list: ERR: socket connect(0) failed."  I was able to track down the print statement in source code https://github.com/ckolivas/cgminer/blob/master/miner.php , but I am still do not know how to fix the problem.

Can anyone assist?  Your help would be greatly appreciated. I have even attempted to load MinePeon onto a new SD card by following the directions from here: (http://www.raspians.com/full-guide-to-minepeon/), but this time through the directions results in an image of MinePeon that will not boot. So I am assuming its better to just reconfigure my original MinePeon OS image that can no longer find devices.
When you load minepeon on a new sdcard did you start with a fresh img of 2.4.4? If you did, did you start from scratch with pools/settings or did you reload your old settings? 
Might it be your hub or are your bfls plugged into the 2 usb ports on the pi itself?
Maybe try just hooking up 1 bfl at a time see if you can get 1 to work.


I started with a fresh image (MinePeon-0.2.4.4.img).  It will not boot so I cannot add any pools/settings to it.  I actually copied the image three different times with the Unix 'dd' command to no avail.  It still will not boot from either of my raspberry pis.

My first load of MinePeon on a separate sdcard ran for 2 months strong and then one day I noticed from my mining pool statistics that it was not mining.  I will try the original image (MinePeon-0.2.4.1.img) that exists on a separate card (and will not recognize devices) with a new hub (I have a spare sitting in packaging).  I do not anticipate this to solve the problem since I am able to operate my keyboard for the raspberry through all USB ports on the hub.

I have two raspberry pi's and one of the BFLs is new (a replacement from Butterfly), so I am certain that the issue of "Error getting device list: ERR: socket connect(0) failed" should be a configuration setting or error with the OS, MinePeon.
