Hello :-)
After I flash a hard disk with the nvOC image, is there an easy way to expand the filesystem to occupy the full capacity of the hard drive?

Hello,
I flash the image, the rig boots into Ubuntu and everything goes fine until the next reboot when Ubuntu cannot load and gets into rescue mode:

Code:

Checking the volume, it show shows that somehow it didn't expand the filesystem

Hi Papampi,
At first reboot it goes straight into rescue mode.

If I image the standard nvOC image (not the Shrinkied Image) and if I follow the "SSD-USB resize guide for nvOC" document, I run into a problem when I execute the command

Code:

gksudo gedit /etc/fstab

as I get the error:

Code:

m1@m1-desktop:~$ gksudo gedit /etc/fstab

(process:20027): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
	Using the fallback 'C' locale.

(gksudo:20027): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: 

The system works pretty fine without extending the partition, so I guess I can leave everything like it is

Hi guys,

as a newbie to linux i have to thank all developers for their work. Thank you guys and please don´t stop, if you did, you would leave people like me hanging in the cold.

A problem i encountered with the new community release version 2.0 is the following.

If i try to connect any of my rigs (doesn´t matter whether nvidia or amd cards) to any etn pool (doesn´t matter as well which pool it is) nvOC uses KTccminer as the miner but once i connect the pool always sets the difficulty at 19, exactly at 19 and this repeats no matter what rig i connect to what etn pool. I had all rigs running under 19. 1.4 and everything was good, now i can´t connect to any of the etn pools.

Any suggestions?

It uses 'KTccminer-cryptonight'

Can you paste result of this command (type in guake)

ps aux | grep miner

Paste the result over here.

Can you also paste the ETN coin details you have in 1bash?

Hello,
Probably the question has been asked zillions of time, but, is there a way to infer the memory manufacturer of a GPU card from Linux/Ubuntu?
I know I can do this using GPU-Z on Windows, but is it really impossible on Linux?

You ran "gksudo gedit" from local machine or some remote like TeamViewer or vnc?
What happens if you run the expand_rootfs.sh script on normal image?

Don't think there is way to do so under Linux yet.

I also tried to connect to etn.easyhash.io:3631 with the same result, diff gets set at exactly 19 and stays there. I can however set the diff manually by adding it to my etn address as "...address.20000" This works but then the diff stays at that at all times. Once again everything worked fine in 19_1.4

As for the details of my 1bash settings for the etn coin. I have my etn address in there as shown above as well as the port. I use port 3333 for the cpu threads and 7777 for the gpu´s in the rig i am using right now to get back online. There are 4 1050 ti`s in there.

When i look at at the outcome above it adds the diff 1600 for the cpu thread (which i set manually by adding it to 1bash) and it puts my custom worker name right behind the etn address. Seeing this now i just converted back to HOST instead of CUSTOM worker name but that doesn´t help a lot. In that case the diff gets set to 100, stays there and the miner never starts mining. The cpu works but only because i set it manually to a 1600 diff. KTccminer-cryptonight never starts mining even though it shows accepted shares.

Unfortunately i don´t know enough about Linux to get anywhere close to resolving this.

Hi Papampi,
I didn't explain myself correctly.
The image SHA-256 is correct.
Ubuntu boot a first time normally displaying the window with the message "resizing partition at next boot..." (cannot remember the exact message). After this it reboots into rescue mode.
I didn't run "gksudo gedit" directly from the local machine, but through an SSH session

Hi All,
Hope someone can help me.  Trying to mine ETC on the Ethteam pool.

nvOC boots fine and starts to mine but then I get an "Eth Authorization failed...retry in 20 seconds" error. 

I noticed the following in the 1bash file:

# Some pools require dot (address.worker), some require slash (address/worker) format.
# Depending on the pool you use, set this approprietly:
DOT_POOL_FORMAT_or_FORWARD_SLASH_POOL_FORMAT="DOT"   # DOT or SLASH

But the pool i am using does not use a dot or a slash.  is there a way to have blank where the dot or slash is?   When I don't have either DOT or SLASH in between the quotes it defaults to /.

Or is something else wrong?

Thanks!

Delete all partitions then flash the shrinked image again, it should work.
May be a problem while imaging it, what program you used to flash it?
In ubuntu you can use the default Disk program and restore image or HDDRawCopy in windows.  

gksudo is the graphical interface for password of sudo and gedit is the graphical text editor in ubuntu you can not run them from ssh.
If you want to expand partition from ssh use:

Code:

cd /home/m1/Downloads

if it does not use dot or slash how you set worker name in pool?

The pool doesn't require a worker name, just a wallet address.  But if you want a worker name you can use -eworker username.

Then you should edit 0miner to have your own settings.
