Checked my e-mail and spam folder this morning: no tracking number for me.
So there'll be no delivery this Saturday. This starts to look like a 50% chance that I threw
BTC5.88 out of the window.
I can have the following outcomes:
- Someone in the family will collect them. If it's not possible without my ID, then they'll eventually be returned to sender.
- If they are successfully collected, that someone in the family will plug them into the prepared USB ports. Then I'll remote to the machine at a later point and will try to launch them. If all goes well without my physical presence, then they'll be hashing, if not, they'll be sitting around doing nothing for a couple of months...
I know, it was stupid of me to actually expect that this time it would be different and ASICs would be manufactured on time and I would have the units in the first week of October...
Hmm. I plan to run two separate instances of bfgminer, where one instance would only control/probe for Erupters (-S erupter:all), and the other - only BFs (-S bigpic:all). Hope this works. If not, I'd need to plan for all BlueFuries running from a separate machine.
I think you should be able to run them on the same machine by specifying the serial port number (for com3 it would be -S //./COM3 on cgminer I haven't used bfg but guess it can also work without probing).
That would be inconvenient, given I have about 70 BES on each machine running them. I'll just plan to deploy BlueFuries on a third machine....
I asked Luke-jr and he replied here:
