ROKOS v2 works on PI B+ , since ROKOS v3 we moved to a debian jessie base, which makes use of the new features of the Pi 2 processor, but is not supported by previous PI devices, the 512mb ram becomes a limiting issue as well, hence we moved to 1gb ram devices, but still can download the v2 version from the history links, that one is the last release for previous Pi devices.
How much RAM is gone? Is it possible to also run something else on it?
(I am using the rPi for my own purposes, just wondering if I instead put your OS on it, and then install my software on top)
Average RAM uses by wallets go from 150-+400mb ram depending on different specs like max connections and wallet uses, hence why we recommend at least 1 GB devices for max stability and performance. With 1gb devices you can do exactly what you are asking, install software in the OS and use the wallets and your software as well in the multipurpose platform device.
How much data bandwidth is it taking?
* with bitcoin
* with e.g. soil
I guess the mentioned coins won't run all in parallel, but I choose one of them, right?
We are on a weak internet connection.
Bandwidth is relative, depends on number of connections as well, but does work on slow connections, just might need to limit this number of max connections.
Is one of the packages actually bringing in money?
E.g. until the distribution ended, it would have perhaps paid off, to run HZ Horizon on it.
Since the ROKOS v1 creation since more than half a year ago, POS from OK Cryptocurrency on the device has been bringing money to the users that does stake with the device.
The coming ROKOS flavors version includes more than 7 new currencies with unique features, some will incentive their use/adoption with incentives, other have the incentive integrated in the technology (POS coins) as you can stake and directly earn from them.
I did send an invitation to HZ team to get integrated into the system, but seems they did not get the message or are not interested
in providing the option for the ROKOS pi users, I am glad to say that the included coming currencies teams work hard to provide all of
their users with most options for use, and they can share the vision of Cryptocurrencies and IoT Collaboration for the user empowerment.
Any real and dedicated cryptocurrency team can contact me to claim an integration spot for future ROKOS releases as well.
Thanks a lot. Interesting project.
I have just not fully understood it, I guess. Sorry :-)
Thanks for your message, this ones help new users with same doubts/questions also, good chat
Basically ROK OS is an operating system or distro for IoT devices, builded/modded with dedication for the empowerment of every user (from new to advanced) and the cryptocurrencies networks/systems, the device is multipurpose and can be used like any other linux system, so can do anything while at the same time saving new users from the hassle of compilations/times among other things. System integrated with and ready to use BTC OK and cryptocurrencies. Cheers
