Hi there! I thought i was going to try WTM switch today. But I ended up with a strange problem..

I got i set up exactly like this:

Code:

WTM_AUTO_SWITCH_COINS="ZEN;ZEC;BTCZ" # ....

But it starts mining ETH.. Can't stop scratching my head..
I bet it's something simple, but to hard to find the problem for a novice like me

You will need to make sure you have this set in 1bash as well:

Code:

PAPAMPI_WTM_AUTO_SWITCH="YES"

Yes, that's set to "YES". I should also mention that I've never mined ETH, so that makes it even more strange that it automatically switch to ETH when I turn on the WTM and choose my coins.

right below PAPAMPI_WTM_AUTO_SWITCH there is this line COIN="ETH"  maybe?

right below PAPAMPI_WTM_AUTO_SWITCH there is this line COIN="ETH"  maybe?

Thank's for your idea. Yes it says COIN="ETH", but WTM auto switch should switch that to one of the coins I've listed, right?
I tried to change it to one of the coins I added to WTM auto switch (ETH is not one of them) and restart the miner. But it will still mine ETH when I get back in. And says COIN="ETH" when I open up 1bash..

If I switch off WTM, it will work as normal and mine the coin I tell it to mine.

Can this mine BTG? My windows rigs seem easier to switch to new coins.

Can this mine BTG? My windows rigs seem easier to switch to new coins.

yes. I'm mining it right now! Finally!

[slackert]

OK, I think I got it figured out. We'll see how it goes.

[slackert]

you have to copy/paste ZEC coin sections in 1bash and 3main. And then replace the ZEC with BTG and update pool/worker info.

ETH is more profitable , and when you first start WTM it has been in coin selection
Open WTM_top_coin, if there is ETH inside, change it with one of your coins.

In WTM web page did you chose "current profitability" and "current difficulty" before copy the link and add json ?
You can also edit your hash rate to be the same as your rig instead of what wtm set for you

Suggestion, could we make a tutorial on adding new coins especially going towards the end of ETH. I feel like there will be a lot of these newer coins that might just be great to hodl, however it would also allow you to outsource the addition of coins a little bit, and you can fork it over from GitHub if the coin tests to be stable on nvOC.

Hello,  first thank you for nvoc i run it for 3 months now.

But I go 2 problem: first one is I have not enough space in the HDD, but I don't understand it's a 3TB hard drive...

Second problem: when i install nvoc in a USB key or hard-drive,  if I want to format it (for update or other usage) it's don't working,  and the device become unusable.

Apologize for my bad English and again,  thank you!

   I have a curiosity about the ASROCK H110 BTC+ board. I have three miners using the same EVGA GTX 1060 SSC
and the two standard boards (5 cards) will hash at 22.3 +- and the ASROCK will do at best 19. The only thing I have
not done to it is update the bios. All other settings are same as the other.

   Is this normal for it? Simply will not pay to run multi systems to make up for it. Will cost 100watt for each board run.
Great system as it will do 12 cards easily on 145 watts for the board. Just wan t to know how to get the most of the
cards I'm running. I use nvOC on all systems at this time so no diff there.

open gparted, it will ask for root password, then expand your drive

you can find some info and how to here

[thaelin]

I had that problem and they here at the forum informed me to use GParted and resize the partition to what ever size I wanted and it will take on the next reboot.
So just enlarge it and reboot and you will fix that.

Second problem, you really do need to get a SSD and use it. Thumb drives have a very short life when used for this. I found that out when I played with the RasPi.
I killed a couple of 64gig micros and did'nt know why. Anyhow, go to an SSD or like me, 80gig laptop drives. Problem fixed.

Papampi, I have to say you and me must keep the same hours or something. You seem to beat me to the draw on
response here.  Thats twice now I try to help and you beat me to it my mere minutes..... At least we do agree on it.
By the way, I am  NE USA , if you dont mind, curious your general loc

Good afternoon, dear community.
I decided to launch a new RIG on the NVOS.
Config: 3 * 1060 6gb, 1 * 1060 3gb, MB MSI P35 NEO2, 4GB frames, ssd, Intel E7500 CPU
I install the image nvos19-4, everything works but after time hangs RIG. The diodes caps lock and scroll lock blinks, the Kernel panic. I tried to roll back to 19.3 the same problem.
Then I tried to establish Lubuntu 17.10, unsuccessfully. The installation did not start. Lubuntu 16.04 also crashed during installation.
As a result it was possible to put Lubuntu 14.04 and for a week now it works without hang-ups, it is stable.
I really like nvOS and I would like to somehow install it on my RIG, but can not imagine how to look for a problem? After hanging in the logs everything is clean, there are no hints of error, the miner also hangs without making any mistakes.
On nvOS I mine ZEC without overclocking and with a default powerlimit turn on the EWBF miner 0.3.4
At Lubuntu 14.04, also put the same miner.
How can I solve this problem?

That's my BTG settings:
in 1bash add:

Code:

COIN="BTG"
PAPAMPI_WTM_AUTO_SWITCH="NO"

BTG_WORKER="$WORKERNAME"
BTG_ADDRESS="$SUPRNOVA_NAME"
BTG_POOL="btg.suprnova.cc"
BTG_PORT="8816"

and in 3main add:

Code:

if [ $COIN == "BTG" ]
then

if [ $EWBF_VERSION == "3_3" ]
then
HCD='/home/m1/zec/v3_3/miner'
fi

if [ $EWBF_VERSION == "3_4" ]
then
HCD='/home/m1/zec/v3_4/miner'
fi

BTGADDR="$BTG_ADDRESS.$BTG_WORKER"

if [ $ZM_or_EWBF == "ZM" ]
then
HCD='/home/m1/zec/zm/5_2/zm_miner'
screen -dmSL miner $HCD --server $BTG_POOL --user $BTGADDR --pass z --port $BTG_PORT;
fi

if [ $ZM_or_EWBF == "EWBF" ]
then
screen -dmSL miner $HCD --eexit 3 --fee $EWBF_PERCENT --pec --server $BTG_POOL --user $BTGADDR --pass z --port $BTG_PORT;
fi

if [ $LOCALorREMOTE == "LOCAL" ]
then
screen -r miner
fi

BITCOIN="theGROUND"

while [ $BITCOIN == "theGROUND" ]
do
sleep 60
done
fi

BTG is not on whattomine. So the switcher will not run.

Hi all,

anyone successfully compiled Claymore's latest version on v19 ?

Also, anything better (or as good) than Claymore for Ethash ?

Im currently using Genoil...
