What about without wireless password or hidden network ?
There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.

I've been trying to get BAMT working for the past couple of hours without success. About a year and a half ago I had set up my own mining farm and scripts to generate webpages. Now I'm moving some miners to a new location and figured that BAMT should be the easy way to go. Wrong! Someone please point out the obvious as I'm pulling my hair out.

First and foremost, no matter what I do I cannot get BAMT to think my two 5830's are configured. I've tried disabled=0 of course, and fiddled with the overclock settings, and tried pre_oc_cmd. Pools are set up exactly as they ought to be for Phoenix in /etc/bamt/pools. I've tweaked things here and there but:

  • Cards display on the desktop as not configured (mother -v does not change this)
  • Cards do not overclock as set
  • pre_oc_cmd does not run
  • Fan speed does not change to 100%
  • Cards do not mine
  • Various status pages (web/gpumon/etc) show nothing

I've checked the /live/image/BAMT/CONTROL/ACTIVE/ directory; it is empty.

After doing this for a while I decided to test the remote capabilities. When I log in via SSH and try various aticonfig commands, I get:
Code:
ERROR - X needs to be running to perform ATI Overdrive(TM) commands

startx:
Code:
Fatal server error:
Server is already active for display 0

Edit: Solved aticonfig errors both with export DISPLAY=:0.

GAH! And regardless, it still won't mine.

Again, someone PLEASE tell me I'm missing something obvious here. Been reading through the full /opt/bamt/examples/bamt.conf ... no clue. At this point I'm feeling that I could have installed Ubuntu and drivers from scratch and still been ahead time-wise. Tongue

Before I dump the whole thing... other than enabling the two GPUs that need to mine and editing pools is there anything else that is necessary to get started? To make things as simple as possible, I started editing less and less, so it seems that changing the disabled value to 0 is all I did in the end.

Supposedly if you get the BAMT 0.6 beta, you can manually build BFGMiner 2.9 for it.

Is anybody using BAMT to mine on Mt.Red pool?

My miners keep switching to the next pool as if it wasn't getting work fast enough from Mt.Red.

Had similar problem while mining for Hashpower, but there I couldn't mine at all with Phoenix (would only work by enabling Cgminer).

Why can't I use my BAMT-Phoenix to mine on these 2 pools?

To make things as simple as possible, I started editing less and less, so it seems that changing the disabled value to 0 is all I did in the end.

bamt.conf is YAML.  Indentation and spacing is relevant.

At a minimum:

1 - set disabled to 0 for the gpus you want to use.
2 - edit the pools file with your mining credentials

Don't use tabs in bamt.conf
Don't change the spacing in the indents

I don't believe mt.red is what most people would call a very stable pool.  Try mining at ozcoin.

Check, check. Did that, used the built-in menus links to edit, didn't change spacing, set pools exactly as shown. Restart mining, no results. Tried this on three different machines, all dual 5830's, same MB. I did get it working with cgminer after setting cgminer: 1 and cgminer_opts, but it's not optimal since it doesn't monitor the miners for me.

if you delete the * mark you also need to remove the spaces so its in line where the * mark was for it to work right i was getting mad one day about that and couldnt figure it out.

again.. pastebin your bamt.conf and pools files with your login and pass obfuscated and someone may be able to help you.

Seeing as BAMT uses cgminer, i guess cgminer is update able, so will BAMT work with ASICs that run on cgminer?

thanks
Yes, BAMT 0.5 can be updated to use the cgminer git repo. There are some steps to take. Easy to do when you follow the instructions in the forums.

Yeah , but with Cgminer I managed to mine there pretty steadily...

Why would Cgminer work and Phoenix not?

That would be a question for mt. red.  I've been able to use phoenix for just about every pool I've mined at.
