maybe off topic but I did flash S9j firmware to all my S9 and all are working fine, less power, less heat and lower fan speeds. no issues at all.

Hi Apprentice,

How did you managed to flash S9 with S9i firmware? I have managed to use microSD card with 2nd partition formated as ext4 so at least I am able to save configuration.

Cheers,

Hank

I am running this on multiple s9s off the SD card. None of them are S9i or S9j's.

Does this mean flashing to the controller is for the s9i? Because it runs fine from SD card on all of mine.

and HOW did you boot from sd card? i copied the image on the sd card but miner wont boot from it. i have s9i ..

If you have a Linux computer, you can just flash the os via terminal. Download the latest version for s9i. Go to the folder and then open a terminal from within that folder. And copy and paste the instal instructions from the link provided by the wiki. It does it for you.

Tbh, the firmware is specifically designed for s9i, in so, that it won't do a firmware upgrade for another s9 unless you have the model name returned as S9i.

With that, it's a open source firmware, so, there is a file which you can edit to make it read as what ever model you want.

So, I flashed the S9 firmware to my s9 13.5. After a while of waiting and beep boop beeps, it's up and running.

I kinda wish it had a cleaner ui, the graph is great, except, I would like a dashboard similar to antminer. Just because I have to keep switching between tabs and then forgetting which tab is what. Maybe I will begin to like it.

Frequency seems alittle wonky, at 743 I am getting less than I should, but, Temps are lower. But I have no real confirmation on what the frequency of the miner is.

Ill let it run alittle more, anyone know how to get a ssh cgminer window open to see it running?

Saw mention of this working only on S9i, not S9.  Think I’ll wait until this is available as a standard firmware u/g - not hassle w/SD boot.  Tongue

Well they're advertising it as working on the T1, but the T1 has no SD card slot! So I guess I am in the same boat.

Maybe the Braiins team will address this thread at some point Tongue

We can be sure it is the same company through a number of methods:

1.) There is a press release announcing the release of Braiins OS on the SlushPool website.

2.) The OS release is signed by a GPG key found on the SlushPool website.

Thanks for the info @sarcheer. I stand corrected. Here's a link to the press release on SlushPool in case someone wants to review it:

Braiinz is the company that runs slushpool.....Braiinz OS is just a product they have put out. Is it really that confusing? Many many companies have a corporate website that is different from the website they offer products through.

I don't doubt that they are the same company, but I think grinbucks point is how can we be sure its actually the same company.

Given these factors I would say that yes, it is the same company behind both SlushPool and Braiins-OS.

Um... a bit confused here. The link from slushpool.com (see bottom of page) to it's maintainer Braiinz is to http://www.braiins.cz/.
You're providing an entirely new domain - braiins-os.org - and that too from a newbie account.

How do users trust that you're actually THE Braiinz that's maintaining SlushPool? Maybe a linkback from http://www.braiins.cz/ would help?

Frankly, with the number of scams going around, I would seriously think twice about installing non verified firmware, from a new source, on my antminers. Been bitten once already.

You dont have to install it, you just put it on an SD card and you can test it in whatever sandbox you would like to use.

It is developed by us - Braiins, the company responsible for Slush Pool since 2013.

EDIT: The site is genuine. There's a press release on SlushPool as mentioned by @sarcheer a few posts down.
