What I did:
- Flashed the original sd card: no difference.
- Flashed a new 8gb sd card: baikal didn't start.
- Flashed again the original sd card, different usb port: new algos there.
I can't tell what did the trick.
Tried card that came with it. tried my spare 64gb card. no luck
tried built in card reader in laptop, tried usb card reader. same no luck

reflashed again and there nisc and other pool added but NO ALGO next to it and cant choose those algos. something wronge. maybye not all x10 are capable of mining?

You're right.

5th attempt.

Now I see all pool with new setting, bu I dont see the algo's


maybe , there is something to do via terminal ?
trying 4th time with different card and still SAME. also emailed baikal but doubt they will help
i suspect there are different batches of x10 and not all does work

From experience i know that these re-flashings are pretty picky, hence the reason i prefer new SD cards and not overwriting the old
ones to have at least a backup in case it does not work.

In the past i had to write several times that image to the SD card to have it working, no idea why, but it seems not every writing and reflash is the same for some reason.

Maybe some of the guys that managed the reflash can give some step by step instructions for the guys that are not that advanced with it. Maybe some hints and tips as well.

What size and format exactly is the SD card in the X10?

I would like to go the safe way and buy new cards and add the new firmware there and not overwrite the old ones to in case something gets wrong i have still the old firmware at least?

I remember they are 4GB,  but what format exactly?

You need at least 4GB, preferably a Class 10  Micro SD card.

thx a lot mate. You safed me some 20km trip and a lot of time :-)
