I posted this in a different discussion but I noticed that this one is labeled active, please excuse my forum faux pas. I'm hoping someone here can help me since I am a relatively new to using antminers. I have three s1's and two s3's and I just bought my first s2. I have successfully ssh into the s1's and s3's and have overclocked/underclocked without any problems, but for some reason I cannot edit the /etc/config in the s2. I open putty and enter root/admin and instead of seeing the normal welcome screen all I see is a line "root@antminer:~#", then I enter "/etc/config" and it says "-sh: /etc/config: not found". I have updated to the latest firmware from Bitmain and have rebooted several times. Any ideas what might be wrong?
Man forget about it, I am telling you mining doesn't pay of, you will never get ROI unless you got free electricity.
Sorry I've been burned so many times you can believe me. I live in UK and I'm in this since may this year.
Regards.
While I appreciate the advice, that doesn't even come close to answering my question. With my total ~2500 gh/s on eligius I am hoping to accumulate one bitcoin a month, and we have relatively cheap power in North GA USA making my power cost a little less than $100. At the current price of bitcoin that is a 300% return on my monthly maintenance costs, so I don't see it as a loosing proposition. Also I have been mining more as a hobby, but extra money is always nice. Has anyone encountered this problem with ssh into the s2? If so is there a fix to it? I would appreciate any technical help, I am well aware of the risk involved in mining any cryptocurrency.
