Braiins OS+ support thread

[Artemis3]

...
Fee cost has not changed. If you aren't doing curtailment, you earn less satoshis using those Chinese pools. That 2% rebate matters.

But on top of that you are still one of the highest pool fees - 2%

So Any FPPS pool that is charging less than 2% (quite a few) is giving a higher reward, no matter what 'marking' lies you make up.

... and on top of that even your own site points out that luck on the last 250 blocks = 3.5 months, has been down 7.5%
So they are losing 7.5% there also, so no way are they making more

Feel free to argue yourself with that user. Unlike others, I'm not doing any "marking" lies (did you mean marketing? too bad, I'm not that).

With the rebate, it is 0%. And guess what, Partners have more options. But this is not a pool thread, so go back to the pool section if you want to waste time arguing instead of coding, People are waiting for the BM1398 BM1362 BM1366, get back to work so a product can be launched before the S21...

Bad mouthing Braiins Pool isn't going to bring you a single miner to yours (especially when you ban independent firmware), You know perfectly well how luck works. Its not 2015. I'm not allowing pool talk here anymore, any further comment about pool will be unceremoniously deleted, use the pool section. You don't see me trolling in your thread so respect mine.

Well I simply responded to your own comments about other pools.
OK, if you don't want pool talk here - don't start it

I would like to know what are the requirements for the new API calls Pause/Resume? Tried to find in the docs, but not yet there.
I mean what needs to be activated e.g. dynamic hashrate/shutdown/etc. Doesn't seem to stay off when there is a simple W target.

Hey everyone I'm relatively new to the world of Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies, and I have a few questions.
Can someone help clarify the process of setting up a secure Bitcoin wallet and the best practices for keeping my investments safe? I've heard about hardware wallets and software wallets, but i'm not sure which one is right for me. Any advice or recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

1st - learn how to use a Forum... One does not just blindly post wherever they want to. Forums have specific areas dedicated to specific topics. Posting off-topic questions wherever you happen to be just ticks folks off and does not encourage them to give you the answers you need...
2nd - repeating the question 2x is just....  

In your case the correct area is Beginners & Help where you find your answers.

Trying to get Braiins OS+ running from SD card S19J Pro with Beagelbone control boards. I got the BB version and flashed the image onto an SD card using balenaEtcher. Can't seem to get the miners to boot from SD card. They boot into stock Bitmain OS no matter if the SD card is inserted or not.

Is there something else I need to do to tell the miner to boot from the SD card?

**Edit/Update** Seems to be a problem with the type of SD card used. I tried another card and got it to boot from SD.

Now I am having another issue, on one machine it won't mine and I see the following in the log. Any idea how to fix this? The machine works fine with Bitmain's OS:

Looks like unsupported variant, or it can't read the EEPROM for some reason, bad cable connection, corrupted eeprom, etc. Try swapping the ribbon data cables.

SD cards can't be SDXC or later thanks to Bitmain. Just SDHC or SD; in layman terms, 16g max (a few 32g may work, nothing bigger).

got an email from braiins today . you will be able to remote load. just like you remote load bitmain os.

i will test over the week end

There are links and instructions for using the new braiins-toolbox in the first message of the thread.

I have installed BraiinsOS on my S19k Pro, but no other pools other than the v2 stratum on Braiins Pool is working. They all states "Dead"

Is BraiinsOS only working with Braiins Pool?

Edit: I got other pools working.
Solution: Turn off AI features in ASUS router

Hello, Installed OS with new toolbox on 10+ devices easy but I have few Zynq s19s that is unsupported, is there a plan to support it or how should I update them also?

Hello there, i have a little trouble, i bought a 64GB SD Card, is it too hight to flash braiin's os?

16 or less is better

these work okay.

You don't need sd to install on Zynq anymore...

Dear sir,
how to flash the xilink board on a s19xp? Or maybe i have just to boot on SD card, but will it work?
regards

[Beny44]

Hi,

is the OS already for S19 Hydro or not?

Thank you for the info.

Currently, you can't flash any s19 series with braiins but you can boot braiins OS on sd card.
You can find the guide under this link below

This unit model is not yet listed on their current supported units check the list of supported units below. Why not try to boot Braiins through SD card and lets see if it would work?

I have yet to buy a miner and therefore cannot try it out. So far I'm dealing with ROI after halving and even with $0.09 per kWh, S19s are already pretty bad.

You can install using Braiins toolbox to any of the control boards.

Running from SD is optional for BeagleBone Black and Zynq.


Hydros are "work in progress", no model is supported until announced. Supporting a miner cleanly from scratch takes a lot of effort and time, it cannot be done quickly. The manufacturer does not provide technical documentation and even obstructs independent firmware development.

Hello,

I am trying to find a way to flash BraiinsOS+ onto S17+ without leaving micro-sd in, to avoid having to spend $300+ on many micro-sd's.

I have read little bits about flashing with BOS+Toolbox, and something about flashing to NAND. But I get lost as im not too technically knowlegable.

If someone could give step by step instructions, or a link for how to, that would be great. Thanks.
