ethOS - Ethereum Mining Platform

[fittsy]

I purchased a copy of ethOS and have it up and running.  Is it possible to dual mine with Claymore?

If so how? An example in the docs or the pools.txt would be awesome

Anyway I like what you guys are doing. Yes I know there are several projects out there, but you're right... for large scale miners this is a very valuable tool.

You should edit claymore config file located in /home/ethos/ folder if i remember correctly...

There you need to add dcr pool an wall address...

Also i think you should add -mode 0

so something like this

-epool eu1.ethermine.org:4444
-ewal xxxxxxxxxx
-eworker xxxxx
-epsw x
-dpool stratum+tcp://dcr.suprnova.cc:2252
-dwal xxxxxxxxx
-dpsw x
-mode 0

why doesnt ethos have an swap memory? When I use command "top" there is no swap?!

[mitice]

Ive got a digital copy ot ethOS will be installing it today how should i proceed with install and after and how can i underclock/undervolt cards and control fan speeds

[escupinyol]

Hi,
I have just buyed today and configured it. Woks ok, I still have to pc my cards but sure it will come.

My question is that I tried to configure teamviewr without success, how can i remotely access my miner? One ssh shell will be enough for my purposes.


Thank you in advance

We take very big efforts to reduce disk usage to prolong livespan of the SSD. Swap uses disk, and is not required for mining.

Can someone give me a help to mine claymore 9 dual mine on nicehash pool?

I Tryed to edit config and stub but cannot connect..

is it possible to undervolt not using globalpowertune?

Currently - 6x - RX470 --> 998 Watts at the wall (1200W Platinum PSU) @ 163 mh/s

I've seen some running at 780W +/- 30W using windows msi burner

Wondering if it would be possible using ethos?

[newmz]

I use the stock ethos eth miner software.

Switch to claymore, you will get better hashrate and more accurate pool reporting...

The way to do this is to edit config file and switch miner from default to claymore, and also edit claymore config file to point it to your pool and wallet...

If you need additional info I can help you...

Or better yet, if you just want to mine ETH, use sgminer-gm in EthOS.
Better hashrate, lower power consuption, NO FEE!

Yo guys I am planning to make a Custom Web Stats Panel for ethOS

Can we use 8 GPU on this ethOS? my motherboard ASrock H81 Pro BTC R2.0

I asked same thing on irc support, they said yes.

I use 6x MSI RX470 gaming x 8GB for Zcash mining with ethOS 1.2.0
My settings in ethOS for this card is:
fan (rig-name)    60 60 60 60 60 60
cor (rig-name)    1240 1240 1240 1240 1240 1240
mem (rig-name) 1725 1725 1725 1725 1725 1725
pwr (rig-name)   20 20 20 20 20 20

With these settings I running at 825 Watt at the wall. When I set the core and mem back to default then I use 785 Watt at the wall. (1200w PSU)
My total hashrate is 1670 Sol with these settings.
The temperature from the cards is around 45 degrees.
I think the settings are also working for ETH mining..., you can try it.

I'm having a  huge problem with ethos.
I have 4 x rx 480 and 1 rx 470.
All stock bios and clock.
When i start mining with claymore-zcash, after 2 minutes all cards stops mining except rx 470 and  i get error :

WATCHDOG: GPU 1 hangs in OpenCL call, you need to restart miner
WATCHDOG: GPU 1 hangs in OpenCL call, you need to restart miner

Any idea ?
Updating claymore to 12.4 gave nothing.

Or better yet, if you just want to mine ETH, use sgminer-gm in EthOS.

WRONG. sgminer-gm is NOT faster than claymore. I have a 480x and it hashes at 26Mhs with claymore and about 23-24Mh/s on sgminer-gm. The claymore fee of 2% still beats sgminer-gm.

I bought EthOS 1.2 last night and i'm having issues booting the OS on an USB key.

mb : MSI Z270-A Pro
cpu : Intel G4400
5x MSI RX 480 gaming 8gb

I was able to get it to work once and it ran for a few hours, then i modified the conf file and then did a reboot.
Since then i get artifacts on the screen or a black screen.

Does EthOS supports chipset Z270? Any issues with that chipset?

Is there an update for that? but again, i downloaded it last night.

/help
thanks

[rocketron]

I dont think the z170a and 270 chipsets are supported yet,

I cannot get any more than 4 gpu to work with ethos and z170a, it hangs on bootup, kernel debug error

[EvilC0P]

that's what i found out on their chat.
i ended up swapping my z270 with an old p5q3, 4 rx 480 works for now but 5th one doesn't get detected but doesn't prevent system from booting and mining. kinda weird ;/

and they said there is an update coming out soon to fix the issue with z170/z270, just so you know

[rocketron]

yep I know, until then I am running windows 10
