Hey everyone, A friend and I decided to make a joint venture and set up a mining rig. We set it up running windows 7 off an old hard drive, and have found various clients worked perfectly on it. However, phoenix has the promising allure of a 5-20% performance boost, so I've been trying to mess around with setting that up I've used the following guides: To make a usb version of linux-- http://www.pendrivelinux.com/universal-usb-installer-easy-as-1-2-3/ To (try and) install phoenix and everything else-- https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=50388.0 The USB linux works fine, and installing phoenix goes mostly without error. The following problems come up though, from the second guide I posted: "screen -S update sudo apt-get install fglrx vim openssh-server subversion git-core python-numpy g++ libboost-all-dev" -- liboost-all-dev cannot be found, or does not exist. It won't let me download unless I remove that line. "make -j3 sudo make install" -- both steps give errors, I can retry and get specifics or screenies if needed. Additionally, and finally, whenever I turn off the computer, any changes I've made revert to my stock linux. How do I fix that? I've tried doing some searching on my own, but my lack of familiarity with linux is a real roadblock. If you can help, either post here or message me. I'd be willing to donate some BTC for your troubles. Thanks~

Excellent. I was looking for a list like this, the ones I found via Bing/Google were sketchy.

wait what.. Can you edit your post so you can explain more clearly from start to finish what happened and what you did about it?

facepalm NOW I read that I could request to have my topic moved to another board if it doesn't get answered sufficiently. But I already locked it in the Newbie section. Damn.

Right now I've earned enough money to buy myself a donut and some coffee after mining for oh, 48 hours straight. When the ASICs come in I should expect to be earning a buck a year on my PC. Damned lunchboxes. If I bought a Jalapeno or other one of those, combined with everyone else buying one, I wouldn't be surprised if I wind up at the same profit rate as I am now. Not really interested in investing in an box unless I see a promising gain of at least $120 per month.

So therefore I am technically right. can i mine those

All this still feels unfounded... Let's wait until we see what they do. Which I somewhat hope the ASICs are a hoax so I can at least see more insane rigs that span entire walls. I like that creativity going on. These lunchboxes take out a lot of the fun. On another note, this guy who is blowing the whistle on BFL sure has a tendency to be a name caller and is more argumentative than trying to actually come up with a logical conclusion.

I am in science class. And I need help with my litecoin production.

AMD Phenom II X6 1090T 8 GB RAM. 2x ATI Radeon HD 5770 Sapphire. Using Reaper and ScryptMiner. Reaper's code: Code: protocol litecoin worksize 256 aggression max threads_per_gpu 2 sharethreads 18 lookup_gap 2 gpu_thread_concurrency 6144 Scryptminer's settings: No additional parameters. Doing GPU and CPU (5 of 6, 6 of 6 when idling computer) mining and so far I've got a generous 80-81 kH/s going here. I'm sure I can get more out of these video cards, at the very least. Suggestions?
