[ANN][BURST] Burst | Efficient HDD Mining | New 1.2.3 Fork block 92000

[bitminer82]

Tried with and without the sudo.  Somehow I didn't have write permissions on the drive that I formatted under this user.  I played around with chmod but who knows what that did... It also gave it a crazy weird numbered name.  Linux...

Show us what you did:

ls -la

Sure thing.

Sure thing.

Code:

-rw------- 1 generator generator 22629 Aug 28 16:31 plot

Its not executable!

chmod +x plot

should do it

Trying to setup pool mining and having some trouble with missing args:

C:\Windows\SysWOW64\java -Xmx1000m -cp pocminer_pool.jar;lib/*;lib/akka/*;lib/jetty/* pocminer_pool.POCMiner generate
*address* 1 1750000 4000 4
pause

Am I referencing the correct library? Java noob over here.

Yes, but for 4000 stagger size it needs more than 1000m memory. Try 3000m or stagger size 1000.

Maybe its mounted with noexec.

type "mount"

If it has the noexec attribute:

mount -o remount,exec /media/...  (the mount point)

Damn, this thread grows faster than anyone I've ever seen  

Any news on v2 of the pool that I missed...?

How are stagger size and memory related?  (I assume that is MBs of ram?) 

How does one determine optimal stagger size?

What new features will be in the pool v2 besides being able to use solo plots? The pool seems to work fine as of now.

Still getting "missing args" after bringing it down to stagger size 1000 (anything more than 1000m would not start the java virtual machine).

Checking my address to see if it's the missing/mistyped arg...yes. There was some hidden formatting from copying and pasting the output address. Thanks for helping me figure out where the problem lay!

Yes, that was the problem.  Once I posted that last stuff and realized I wasn't able to change permissions I googled how to do that to a mounted drive.  Did some stuff in the terminal and now it seems to be fine.  Says I'm still not a user but it's running now.  Thanks for your help!

Sure hope it mines alright in my Windows box with all the others and doesn't have weird permission problems...

stagger size 1 is 256kb of mem, linear growing. In theory. But java needs more than that.
Go as high as your memory allows (8191 is max)

You can always work as root ("sudo su") and disable all this restrictions. If you really want to.

It's nice to have a backup just in case there's an issue with the pool at anytime. So, solo mining can be the back up of the pool mining and you can use your personal burst id to setup your plots.

Hmm, check this out.

If I am plotting 8 drives am I then running pocminer's run_generate 8 times?  Once from the folder located on each drive?

If I am plotting 8 drives am I then running pocminer's run_generate 8 times?  Once from the folder located on each drive?

If you mean that you will generate the same plot on every drive i would advise, actually recommend using different plots.
Using the same plot is just like creating one plot and copying it to the other 7 drives (if identical).

Create your plots in sequences over all the drives.But doing this 8 times at once will require some powerfull hardware (cpu+mem) setup.

Definitely need to make sure you have enough cpu threads and system ram to plot all those simultaneously.

You really should plot them one after another. All simultaneously wont be faster - most likely slower.

[MOB]

OK, so I plot them one at a time (or one per computer I have lying around).

Am I doing different settings for each drive?  How do they differ?  Just change the starting point by 1 each time?

Wow someone really just sold a btc and a half at 250.

I'm guessing that noob who got the 3 million cheap coins is dumping them all now.

It's good in the long run, more distribution and less weak hands.
