Yes sorry its 64bit only. I didn't think anyone would be running old machines like that anymore I could add a 32bit kernel if people required this ? Is there a 32bit kernel now?

To all those that want to have mining starting up with system: put inside /etc/rc.local, before the command a call to a script like The mining.sh script can do what it likes, like starting up miners, calling other scripts, calling screen to detach them and so on. I think that in this thread there are several examples of such a configuration. spiccioli. Be careful using /etc/rc.local you scripts might be executed before the WDM can start your cards

No sorry I haven't created a 32bit version as yet. To rip out the core of linuxcoin and replace with a 32 bit so to speak would be lots of headache. I'm switching distros after the final release and then I will build up bot 32bit / 64bit and maybe even arm Working on the final version as we speak. Been tweaking pyopencl and have squeezed a 0.1% improvement lol !! << GEEK EDIT:450MH/s + radeon 5870

Ha! well I can't seem to find any option to allow a 9 months old TigerDirect computer w/ AMD Athlon dual core 2.31 ghz boot to the USB. I knew it was a piece of crap.
Some computers will not show the USB boot option unless a bootable USB stick is plugged in at boot time, AND certain options to enable it are set in the BIOS. These vary from BIOS to BIOS.

THANK YOU! THANK YOU! I would have never guessed such a simple solution. I was getting ready to look into flashing the Bios with a more current version. You sir are a gentleman and a scholar and I thank you for the bottom of my heart for not having to figure out how to cajole my wife into turning her computer into "the miner". (did I say thank you? 8^)

I'll try it

I'll try it Your headless but your still running your terminals using X ATI GPGPU's need X to access the hardware CUDA does not. If there was a way to access these resources without X I would of released another livecd with no WDM PS: LinuxCoin 0.2 final is imminent. I've really cleaned things up in this version and made sude EVERYTHING works. 1) I've added munin and wrote plugins to monitor everything via the nice little graphs I posted a link to the other day. All the plugin's auto detect your GPU's 2) PXE is now working great and very stable. 3) Added more hardware support 4) Optimized pyopencl 5) Made small changes posted by user do disable asking for user input on reboot. 6) Updated software and security updates 7) Fixed permissions error with screen Updated smartcoin and working with the developer to get things running smoothly in linuxcoin. 9) Fixed bug with aticonfig not configuring the GPU's properly. Well fixed my error what caused aticonfig to bug out If you would like anything added or see something changed / fixed please let me know ASAP as this release will be the last till I finish switching distributions.

I've managed to get persistence to work and go to termial and used:
sudo passwd user
to create a new password, BUT when I shutdown and reboot I am not asked for a password?
How do I create a pasword that is required upon boot?

From the first post in this thread: If you want to disable autologin edit /etc/inittab and replace this Code: 1:12345:respawn:/bin/login -f user </dev/tty1 >/dev/tty1 2>&1 for this Code: 1:12345:respawn:/bin/bash </dev/tty1 >/dev/tty1 2>&1 and reboot

Thought I'd setup LinuxCoin 0.2.1b on a VM in my Win7-64 gaming machine that could be launched to mine overnight. The build went OK, however, when I run Bitcoin the first time to populate blocks it eventually will give the following error and close:
"Warning: disk space is low"
I set the VM disk to 8GB and dynamic. If I re-launch Bitcoin it will populate a few more blocks and then give the same error, eventually it immediately errors out without finding all the blocks.
Any fix?

root terminal in windows terms start > accessories > root terminal but after your last input it looks as if you may have managed to change something if sudo su is asking you for a password. Wiki is on it's way !!
