Bitfury stable/rpi?

[psyberwolf]

hi all,
   I currently running 7x bitfury's on my Rpi under bfgminer 3.0.99. BFGminer seems to just stop every 24 hours or so and the USB's get sick, if i restart BFGminer all seems ok and the sicks start mining again..just wondering if anyone knows and easy way i can do the following

run bfgminer on startup
set a script to reboot the pi every 24 hours.

should the sticks be doing this?. dunno if its the version of BFG or the sticks doing it,.
ive done a bit of fiddling around but figured someone may have already set this up so might as well ask.

Thanks,
Brendan.

well probably looks really messy but figured how to start at boot with making a "bfgminer" file in the /etc/init.d dir
i have little linux exp so this probably looks like garbage but works.


 #! /bin/sh
# /etc/init.d/bfgminer

### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides:          bfgminer
# Required-Start:    $remote_fs $syslog
# Required-Stop:     $remote_fs $syslog
# Default-Start:     2 3 4 5
# Default-Stop:      0 1 6
# Short-Description: Simple script to start a program at boot
# Description:       A simple script from www.stuffaboutcode.com which will start / stop a program a boot / shutdown.
### END INIT INFO

# If you want a command to always run, put it here

/usr/bin/bfgminer -o stratum.mining.eligius.st:3334 -u ***address here -p pass -S bitfury

# Carry out specific functions when asked to by the system
case "$1" in
  start)
    echo "Starting bitfury"
    # run application you want to start
 
    ;;
  stop)
    echo "Stopping bitfury"
    # kill application you want to stop

    ;;
  *)
    echo "Usage: /etc/init.d/bfgminer {start|stop}"
    exit 1
    ;;
esac

exit 0

===============

than run these 2 to get it to exec

sudo chmod 755 /etc/init.d/bfgminer

sudo update-rc.d bfgminer defaults

========

now to schedule reboot!
