Hi all, just got one (prb) stupid newbie question....
I have 1 old raspberry pi b+ and some old usb antminers U2 mining BTC ( ya i know ... just for fun and cause dont pay power), but recently got 1 gridseed blade , so my question is... its possible use rasp to mine both (BTC and LTC for example) ? i use the cgminer 4.1 to BTC and the cgminer 3.7.2 on grid blade with 1 old laptop to LTC.
So can work ? its possible have 2 cgminers ? Or need change , like cgminer and bfminer for example ? or its impossible that rasp works with both? Huh Huh
Thanks in advance.... Roll Eyes

It's not a stupid question. To answer your question - yes it is possible. But it won't be profitable.

Now, assuming you don't pay for electricity and don't care about your parent's or school's electric bill you have one more thing to consider and that your hashrate really won't generate much money.  It may be worth it as a learning experience but I would be surprised is you made a USD a year from your endeavor.

Well nice to ear that  Wink, yes its only for personal knowledge. But its possible using the 2 cgminers ( the 4.1 to btc and the the 3.7.2 to gridseed blade ) or need use different ex: 1 using cgminer and the other for an example bfminer ? Are the 2 cgminers compatible in rasp??   Huh Huh Huh

I did run a geccoscience Compaq, 2 u2's and a gc3355 in scrypt mode from a single driver in the past... So it's defenately possible... If I remember correctly, I just compiled cgminer for each device individually and ran them separately, but I'm not completely sure anymore... The way I see it, you already bought the hardware, so there is no harm in trying anyways, just compile cgminer and try if you get it to work..

Good luck
