[xsamx1987]

Hello im sure you have heard this problem a million times so im sorry,

I have bought a Rockminer R-box and I would like to run it on my raspberry pi/Minepeon
Is there something I need to install or enable I hope someone can help me.

I have an R-Box running with MinePeon right now. Follow this post and you should be able to get it up and running: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=720832.msg8281838#msg8281838

Basically all you need to do is update BFGMiner to 4.6.0.

Try using this link for step five:

Try copying and pasting this exact command, without the quotations to download BFGMiner 4.6.0:

"sudo wget http://luke.dashjr.org/programs/bitcoin/files/bfgminer/4.6.0/bfgminer-4.6.0.txz"

OK try typing the following without quotations:

"sudo tar -xvf bfgminer-4.6.0.txz"

step 7 same thing I typed in cd bfgminer-4.2.0 so I put a / and that worked I think and now step 8 isn't working sudo ./configure command not found

[guitarplinker]

You have to type bfgminer-4.6.0 instead of 4.2.0 for these commands.

Try typing this command without quotations:

"cd -"

Then continue from Step 7 again, except wherever the guide uses 4.2.0, use 4.6.0 instead and it should work.

Good to hear! Should take about a half hour or so to finish the guide then if you just started to compile.

[xsamx1987]

ok im near the end now step 11 I type in cp bfgminer /opt/minepeon/bin and it says some thing about a txt file or some thing being busy is it important ?

[guitarplinker]

Does it stop the process when the text file is busy or continue on? I don't think it should matter much.

[xsamx1987]

its ok its working now so I did a reboot now ive gone in to the web gui and it no longer shows a BFG ver so does that mean it installed or not ?
