I have this problem exactly, can i try just using a new 4Gb SD card with the image first ?
Can i write the image with a program like Win32 Disk writer and rename the folder as BTMBOOT ?
Anyone help me out please.
Thanks

Have you tried the reset button located near the display?

I have never heard any beeps and the reset does nothing at all, the BBB (Beaglebone) has 4 green/1 red and no blue. If its not the SD card/image then it must be the BBB but i do not understand how to replace it.......  Do i just insert the SD card with my image on it ? Totally confused about the reset buttons etc as you can't get to them when the BBB is in the rack How do i know what version/batch i have ?? Cheers |

After trying various memory cards, images, the lot, ALL i done was pull out 2 cards, powered up and i could see the blue leds on near the ethernet port, inserted other 2 cards back in, entered pool details and its working...WTF !!

Sounds like the card is dying. I had the same problem required multiple reboots to get them to come one online. Finally it died, bought a brand new Sandisk SD card and everything works perfectly.

Check if there is any loose connector. Clean all accumulated dirt.

I is still in bits i wonder what will happen if i power down again !!!!
Is it really critical to get a code 10 sd card ?
If so i will update miner to latest files etc, then create am image and put it on one as a spare...
1 - does the card have to be removed from unit/plugged in pc to create the image or is there a 'back-up' menu in the miner interface ?
2 - what program do you recommmend to create the image.
cheers

If you didn't move the miner, i guess it's will be alright  Otherwise just pull out the blade again  You need pc to write the image. If using windows, Win32DiskImager is the choice. |

Well i just checked my miner and the speeds are all over the place, if you look at pic one of the asics, chain #1 has a - instead of a 0.  The miner status page speed matches the speed on the mine display. Which card is this, at what end of the machine, can i just remove it, clean it etc..... Cheers |

I don't think cleaning the card will solve the problem. It's seem like failing chip. As long as it's didn't cause problem to the chain, you are fine. |
