I think I will try one of those compiled cgminer's now and see what I get. Maybe I am off base here, but I figure I should be getting at least one share a second on Zetacoin when I am mining with 1Gh/s. Network difficulty changed to 2.76k (19.77Gh/s) Then go down to the section that says something about the armfreq800 and then do the following. Just type in the command sudo nano /boot/config.txt. First thing you will want to do is overclock it. Stratum from pool 0 requested work update There are still a few things that you might want to do with your raspberry pi before you mine, to improve your hashrate. I am a n00b to all of this.Īnywho - how are YOU GUYS doing with bfgminer on you RPi? How does it compare to other miners you have set up? It could be that I am mining at full power, and seeing less Accepted messages because the 'chunks are bigger'. And I have a few theories about what might be going wrong.ġ) My network connection at home is not as good as at work.Ģ) The Raspberry Pi's built on NIC is not very good.ģ) The brainpower of the RPi is not good enough to keep up with the constant work-load.Ĥ) I don't know what the hell I am doing. I am mining Zetacoin, which has a very low difficulty compared to BTC. Then I have my MINING MONSTER which is running through the messages at about 1/3rd the speed. And I am just watching the "Accepted" messages rolling by. I have a setup at work where I get 80k or so doing 256-sha mining. Prepare the SD Card for the Raspberry Pi.Īnyhow - I wanted to get some feedback from you folks and ask you "how's it going?".īecause I am running three ASIC USB Block Erupters and I feel like they are just not trucking along very well. The only difference between the files hosted at github and the file that I have (that works) is mine extracts to a folder called BFGminer-3.1.3 and the one on github extracts with a folder named bfgminer-bfgminer-3.1.3, which to the best of my understanding should make no difference.ġ. I've tried downloading the old version from github but it will not make. UPDATE, I tried this with the newest release of Raspbian and the newest release of BFGMiner and do not have it working yet. Please feel free to PM me if you run into any problems! As a side note USB 3.0 hubs (blue connector) will not work with the Pi. I've had a lot of help from the BTC community and want to give back in anyway I can so hopefully this helps someone who is just starting out. Just got my block eruptors running on my pi and I wanted to document my process as I found the currently available guides either incomplete or outdated.
