Hey all I have an issue with a 12 rig miner. I also have a 6 gpu rig and an 8 gpu rig miner and they both run perfectly on the new EWBF 0.2 miner. My 12 rig miner is a different story though. All are running win 10 lastest build. 90 gig of virt mem. 4 gig ddr4 ram with pent G cpu and asrock miner motherboard.
I can get 11 cards running fine although it takes a while after the 9th card to get the 10th and 11th card to run but they eventually do run. I can not however get the 12th card to run. I have 8 1060 6 gigs and 4 1080 8 gig cards on this miner. These cards work perfectly on other mining software and on the same pool from 2 miners. I am at a loss to what is happening. It keeps saying that card 12 has stopped and is restarting. It does this over and over and over.
The card is cold and is not mining and the miner software shows it on the software but at 0 sols. Anyone have any ideas what is going on.?
Thanks
Paul

Someone has turned a shit load of them on.
Zcash difficulty doesn't change very quick. I seen soo many blocks go in the last few hours.
Block time meant to be 150sec I think and it was af 10sec and diff barely moved and they are happy fo have asics on thier network
fuck zcash. They were supposed to be decentralized and "privacy" transactions. They have never gotten the z address transactions to work and now they are an ASIC coin so they are neither decentralized or private. What is the point of zcash now? Agreed, I'm focusing on BTCZ a equihash coin that switched parameters to 144,5. So the Z9 can't play their coin. The whitepaper states they will keep changing parameters to maintain asic resistance. I think snowgem and BTG are following in the same path. If they change parameters just "right before" asic's next version shipment, hopefully they will wear them out. Plus, equihash allows some modifications to the algo to provide differentiation between the various coins to further frustrate the asic manufacturers. That's why EWBF requires you to specify which coin via -pers command switch. GPU's can handle it no problem. Asics... not so much. |

FYI, I am not experiencing any intensity bug at all in Linux.

Maybe I have to try booting from your image because I don't understand how you will get any fee from a linux os.
If I want to use your OS a fee will always apply even if I try another miner?
Maybe it is all evident for you but for me and I guess for many people more it isn't and that's probably one of the reasons there aren't many posts here.
Try it, It is built to give windows users a Graphical Desktop instead of a cold hard command line for setup. You will make a few edits into a windows notepad like program to setup your mining pool info. That text file is heavily commented to explain which line to edit. Yes, Even if you try another miner, the fee will still apply. We will just won't sharing the same miner, that's all. Are you not interested in using EWBF? AcharyOne, I added to the description to hopefully clarify the fee share process. I made bold the additions. Hope this helps. We are going to handle the fee arrangement a little differently. I set it up to 50% share mining on it for about 15 minutes a day. You and I would split mining shares for the 15 minutes. The other 23hours 45 minutes are all yours of coarse.
I guess we would kind of call it a dev fee. That would work out to be roughly a 0.5% fee.
I would rather do it this way because most pools are PPLNS.
Being a miner myself, I'm thinking if you stop mining on your pool account completely like most Dev fees work, it would be more harmful to your daily earnings. Rather, if you slow down for a period of time while sharing with me would be less harmful as the pool will see you haven't stopped completely. I will use the fee to further feature enhancement going forward. Some of the thoughts I have are self-monitoring and repair of mining crashing i e watchdog, automatic fan and power control to keep the card safe when it gets warm, have the "option" to activate being able to remote into a PC via remote desktop, keeping up with new releases, adding other btcz miners as they are developed Etc. Things like that. We have also set up another 15 minutes for the bitcoinZ Community Fund. So they would get a 0.5% fee donation as well. So your total donation would be roughly 1%. |

First formal release with: New Nvidia 387 driver, EWBF Miner, Basic miner crash recovery, Dev(0.5%) and BTCZ Fund(0.5%) fee sharing engaged, More icons set on the desktop for user ease of access, updated readme to help new installations. etc. I am a windows user but I don't understand how does that fee work, I mean, if we start the image from the pen, won't we be able to mine anything and any way we want? Yes, You will be able to mine any coin EWBF 0.2 supports. Our hope is you would mine BTCZ But that is not a requirement. And you will not penalized for mining other coins. But to be clear, The fee will still be intact. How does the fee work? We are going to handle the fee arrangement a little differently.

Does this miner support 1060 3GB with 192.7 algo? Under windows I get this error: GeForce GTX 1060 3GB, not enough memory, Available: 2605 MB, Required: 2979 MB It's a problem with windows 10 and its way of allocation of GPU RAM, even for cards which are not being used for display. Problem is known for long time to all renderers (now also to miners) and looks like Microsoft isn't giving a sh*t to solve it. So much of production use of Windows 10  Under Windows 7 each 1060 3GB gives 12 sol/s for 192.7 algo. Try ZhashOS. It uses EWBF without all the hours of grief Windows causes. Leave your windows intact and use ZhashOS when you want to mine. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4481713.0 |

Release 2 of ZhashOS is now availible. Updated to EWBF 0.2 cuda 8 which allows us to use a more mature nvidia driver. Added a icon for editing GPUoverclock.sh plus a dialog box reminder/instructions to activate it after editing. Be sure and restart the miner after you activate it. Added "Take a Shot" screen shot program. Have shrunk the download size to under 500MB. Will fit on to a 2GB USB Flash Drive now. USB 3.0 drives are still highly recommended. It is 6x-10x faster. Makes boot times measured in seconds. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4481713.msg40261859#msg40261859 |

Also, the download size is now under 500MB. Shrunk the partition to under 2GB. O/S is only 900MB so it still has plenty of room to live in. Also, besides "screeny", I added "Take a shot" a screen capture program. http://www.altcap.biz/ZhashOSdocs/DesktopView.png |

...one of the examples lists --solver 1...
EWBF Cuda Equihash Miner v0.2
...
* Parameter "solver" is disabled...
AHH! Ok, Thanks! Was working on ZhashOS and saw it at the command line and was wondering? |

EWBF,
When I do miner -h , one of the examples lists --solver 1.
What is that switch and what options are provided?

Made the USB key with unetbootin from Ubuntu.
I have an error message of not enough memory space at boot with a 8 and 16 GB key (and 16 GB RAM).
Hello, If you are using Linux for flashing, Just unzip and use dd dd if=/<Directory Of File>/ZhashOS_r1.img.zip of=/dev/XXX XXX being the location of your usb flash drive. Make sure it is not currently mounted. I forgot dd :-). Made the USB key with etcher, as you wrote in your pdf and all work fine. Will you make an upgrade with the new EWBF version (0.2) ? Thank you for your excellent job (less 4 GO). I have been working on release 2 with the new EWBF 0.2 cuda 8 version and taking to the rigs to test. If all is well I will upload in a few hours. Using NVIDIA driver 348.111 my "works everywhere" driver. my release 2 will have a easier to setup Power/Fan Speed/Overclock function to activate on boot. Also, what is (less 4 GO)? |
