Is CrazyGuy RaspPi .image available for download somewhere? I went to this link " https://github.com/crazybitcoinguy/minera" and downloaded the latestest minera from this link "Download minera-latest.img.zip." I tried switching over and didn't see "AMcg". I couldn't get any settings to save like pool or anything and Minera is showing 800 as the defaults frequency. What am I missing here? Is that not crazyguy's Raspi image?

Finally got more prisma to debug! Please checkout https://github.com/blockerupter/cgminer, I pushed my update of prisma driver to blockerupter's repo. This update should fix board detection issues and many of the sync errors.

I would be happy if someone from asicminer would just offer me replacement of the bad boards. I've lost downtime but it will be more loss without any hashes. Overall this was more of a test run to see if it was worthy to order in bulk. The ones that do run, run well.
I had a board go out on a tube. I contacted support and they told me to ship it back and they'd replace it. My experience with AM support has been pretty amazing.

I'm willing to sell my Prisma at a discount if anyone wants one with a missing capacitor that I couldn't get to hash more than one board at a time... It has the USB dongle and not the controller...
I would take a chance on it for .6 btc I think that's a bit low.

uote author=toptek link=topic=596620.msg9561119#msg9561119 date=1416152446] When do I type this? sudo apt-get install -y redis-server git screen php5-cli php5-curl cd /var/www sudo git clone https://github.com/crazybitcoinguy/mineracd minera sudo ./install_minera.sh when the Rasp Pi first starts up in the command screen or whatever its called? So I tried type this in and got to this line sudo git clone https://github.com/crazybitcoinguy/mineraIt says 'destination path 'minera' already exists and is not an empty directory' I skipped that line and went to cd minera and it did something that time. the lines above explain it in a round about way ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) ... you have to install new rasp barry OS above they give you a link then do it ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) or i guess you can use WinSCP and delete it if you use windows and then put his version in there . I'm Gonna try both ways to see . and there is another way i saw Nwool and CK explained the other day in some posts i read some place but didn't pay it any mind. Raspbian you can get it here: http://downloads.raspberrypi.org/raspbian_latestSimply download and put it in your SD card (there are tons of guide to do this, google it). When you have your system ready, ssh into it and install Minera Skip this step and continue below if you have a web server with PHP just installed. sudo apt-get install -y lighttpd php5-cgi sudo lighty-enable-mod fastcgi sudo lighty-enable-mod fastcgi-php sudo service lighttpd force-reload When your web server is ready you can install Minera: sudo apt-get install -y redis-server git screen php5-cli php5-curl cd /var/www sudo git clone https://github.com/crazybitcoinguy/mineracd minera sudo ./install_minera.sh ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) . [/quote] Tried following those instructions but no results. If someone would be willing to provide a direct link to Crazy Guys Rasp Pi image I'd be happy to toss you some coin. Bout to give up on this POS and put it on the market. I've attempted to message him directly but I guess he is busy.

1btc would be fair if the boards worked. Used prices are about 1.1-1.25, knock it down to 1 for the cap being fixed and we are on track. 1btc with boards that won't work together at the expected hashrate and a board that may or may not work once the cap is replaced and it's just not worth the risk. I'm just sitting back and waiting for the pics from when he goes Office Space on it.

I posted a photo in another thread and can post more if need be. I'll accept 1 BTC if someone wants it. PM me if you are interested. 3 of the 4 boards work individually and would probably work together with a controller.

GR8 sales support right, right, sure, sure.. BS half-a$$ @ best and the hardware is junk.

I sold my Prisma 1.4T. Thanks for all the help. If you use a Prisma, please build a case for it out of metal rods and screen material to be safe. Also, you can bend the metal on the bottom of the unit to lift it up a bit.

So has anyone actually gotten these to work on a standard Linux machine yet? I keep getting the "Unexpected value 00 received" error. I've tried different git branches suggested in previous posts. I've re-cabled this in various ways also with no success.
I have a Pi somewhere I will try to repurpose for this if that is what it takes.

Try their cgminer branch which got updated recently. https://github.com/blockerupter/cgminerIf this doesn't affect hash rate(around 350GH/s per board), just ignore this kind of error. I got several boards with occasional errors like this, yet all works well.

Sorry my updates are not more forthcoming I'm a little burnt (ha) from troubleshooting these:
I had just fired it up from an off state, where it had previously ran for about a week now, fire started about 10 seconds in. Thank god I was there, I saw flame like a candle and was able to pull power immediately.
Just so you know it is very cold in my mining rooms right now, ~50-60F or even colder at nights. My cointerra is my most heat sensitive miner and it is running cool and stable.
Out of 8 prismas, or 32 boards:
4 have transistors that climb to 80C+ whereas all other boards exhibit 30-60C. They will sometimes still hash, but slowly, and the tube heatsink is really that much hotter because of it. Burning hot. And some of these only exhibit the problem on half of the hashing board.
8 have power down / hashing issues. Suspecting bad chips on these boards. They hash, albeit slowly and reset and generally I am blaming these boards for breaking the daisy chain and causing the others to have problems.
1 has burnt out on me now
I'm not trying to smear asicminer and have no agenda. I am disappointed with these problems. I had some plans that were in holding pattern waiting for the all clear and now they need some rewriting.
I would be happy if someone from asicminer would just offer me replacement of the bad boards. I've lost downtime but it will be more loss without any hashes. Overall this was more of a test run to see if it was worthy to order in bulk. The ones that do run, run well.
Oh.., it's not a joke. Never would have thought that it's possible with AM hardware. It's a great luck you were there at that time
