+1 as i am using the old BAMT now (without mother, graphs and such), with new drivers, cgminer. its a hassle, and i do not want to figure out how to get the graps working.

Installed peon on the pi yesterday, and looking forward to run the block erupters from your group buy on it. I like minepeon - small and to the point.

The only problem with something like this for GPU mining is the added complication of supporting ATI drivers from the distro. Would you include the driver? Multiple versions?

Does anyone have further information on this?  From memory you were not able to include the AMD binaries with a distribution but I just googled and I can't seem to find anything about it.

Can you include a script for us to do this ourselves?

or instructions for how to create a script for us to do it ourselves?

Possibly, I just need to find the rules AMD have for redistribution.

How do you, the author, pronounce minepeon?

In my head I am saying minniepeon as in miniture peon

Minnie Peon? -- mine sounds like "Minnie Mouse"

OR

Mine Peon? -- mine sounds like "mine not yours"

A script for picking drivers sounds great, old driver for 5xxx and newer for 7xxx.

Thank you for considering this.

+1 Would be great to have MinePeon on x86 as well. I think Arch Linux is a great base for mining OS.

Its the last bit that you're having problems with, the first is mine (as in mining), the last is more like;-

I hate you so much that I would not pee on [peon] you if you were on fire.

It's kind of crude, and I did not invent the word, but that is what it sounds like.

Neil

P.S. I don't hate you, it was an example.

Sorry to bump an old thread... but I would definitely be interested in this if it still has a chance to live.  

My primary use would be for ASIC mining.  You've turned out one hell of a OS for ARM. I love it on my Pi, but the limits of the rPi hardware are strating to become a problem.  Primarily the inability to use any USB3 hubs with out of the box higher power delivery.  The one other tough bit is that I can see where I'm leaving money (in lost GH from what I'm reporting to what the pool reports) on the floor because the rPi isn't quite fast enough.  When running cgminer directly on a more powerful PC I'm keeping nearly 100% GH of what I'm reporting, where as on the rPi I seem to be loosing between 5-10% GH right off the top. 

I'm trying to find a happy compromise right now between wanting the density and power delivery from USB3, and simplicity of install and management. 

As far as the GPU side of things, maybe now that cgminer (and bfgminer has hinted the same) has removed GPU support entirely.  It would appear the tide has turned and people are abandoning their GPU mining setups.  With the exceptions of LTC of course, but you have to imagine that scrypt capable ASICs can't be too far away at this point.

I'd be interested. Windows has terrible uptime with my R9 290 for some reason.

Resurrecting this thread sorry.  I am doing a pile of work to port MinePeon to other ARM devices at the moment.

Does anyone have some hardware to donate?  An old GPU rig or two would push this forward.  I will even pay (in bitcoin) if someone has something cheap.

I'm not sure what your time table is, or if you'd be willing to let people beta it for you, but I would certainly donate $10-15 to getting this off the floor. Do you need a full rig or just a GPU to test with?

Hmm,

I have to say, the response is somewhat underwhelming. 

Sure there are a few people who want it but the amount of effort required to do this seems unwarranted and I would be better off just putting all of my effort into MinePeon ARM.
Neil

+1 for this.

I would prefer you continue to work on th ARM version.
