I work as a systems admin by day and a bitcoin miner when I have time - I've been running Ubuntu for years (miners and desktops) and that's all well and good but I'm wondering if anybody has setup a CentOS miner?

I've setup a CentOS 6.4 64Bit server and Desktop playing with a couple of asic block eruptors - both scenarios I'm able to see the USB device and it shows in the logs but when I fire up bfgminer it only shows the cpu.  I've followed a few Ubuntu how tos (modifying it appropriately) but I'm not able to get bfgminer to see the usb sticks.  I have this working great in Ubuntu - took about 20 minutes (after building the box) but no luck with CentOS. 

I'm just looking for something to occupy my time while I wait for the rest of my hardware.

I tried for awhile too, to get usb and detect for eruptors on CentOS. It was a no-go for me and development on CentOS appears to have ceased. Sorry.
MULTI-GPU is what it was made for, and it did great for that. The curse of specialization.

*Correction* I was thinking of BAMT. Too maybe set up attempts to keep them straight. Sorry, disregard.

I've been running Ubuntu for about a week with ZERO issues so I think I'm going to stand fast - thanks for reading and replying Smiley
