Just picked up some rigs over the weekend. Looking for mining software I can run these Zeus/GAW rigs on, preferably something which runs on a Raspberry PI?

it's old out dated I'm not even sure how well it works any more from zoomhash.

https://zoomhash.com/pages/raspberry-pi-software-update


mnera works great with that miner i had it  running my TX6 two month ago i don't power up much any way ...

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=596620.0

BFGMINER IS the best one to use now

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=877081.0

OLD fork of CGMINER

https://github.com/siklon/cpuminer-gc3355


I prefer BFG and minera and use it with my Alchemist with five working boards on a custom PI type.

all  these will run on all most on any RPI all but the zoomhash one if might be to old for a rpi3 even after a full update, if you use a RPI 3 i would load it with Ubuntu Classic Server 16.04 https://ubuntu-pi-flavour-maker.org/download/ then either use BFG at the black screen with SSH or manually install minera if you install Ubuntu 16 , after you do a full update there is a small bug that stops it from running  i found a fix for  in the config.txt on any PC in the SD reader change:  
Code:
set extended DT area
to the line below then pop it back in the RPI 3 it should boot right up.unless they fixed it which they haven't, i reloaded my PI 3 a day ago had to replace the  line again.

Code:
# set extended DT area
device_tree_address=0x2008000
device_tree_end=0x200ff00

and if you manually install minera you have to install it like this

Code:
sudo apt-get install -y lighttpd php7.0-cgi
sudo lighty-enable-mod fastcgi-php
sudo lighty-enable-mod fastcgi
sudo service lighttpd force-reload

sudo apt-get install -y redis-server git screen php7.0-cli php7.0-curl libblkmaker-0.1-dev

cd /var/www
sudo git clone https://github.com/michelem09/minera
cd /var/www/minera

sudo ./install_minera.sh

and change few lines in the
Code:
install_minera.sh
file  to
Code:
php7.0
from php5 before you use
Code:
sudo ./install_minera.sh
or it may not install right ...

Ive got Minera, but it's a real bear to work with. Terribly unstable.
It won't recognize the miners, it won't recognize pools, can't get it to restart cleanly.
Super finiky. Ive had a Gridseed running on it for a while now, but I had to move the plugs when I got the Zeus, now I can't get the gridseed back online.
Ive spent about 2 hours with cables, plugs, different order of bouncing and power cycling.

There has GOT to be something better than Minera.
