Hi guys. It took me a while to arrive here but let's hope I can learn something.

After finding the now famous NovaSpirit post about mining on a Raspberry Pi 3 I wanted to give it a try. So I began to search before doing something. But after finishing I have several question, so I would like if somebody help me understand those. Bellow are the instructions as I follow them.

First I follow this tutorial: hxxps://steemit.com/cryptocurrency/@gridcat/how-to-install-coin-magi-wallet-on-your-raspberry-pi

Questions:

1. When Configuring the wallet the username & password are the ones of the site of when you join a pool or should you create the magic.conf file with generics are then comeback to change it after the service it's created and working?

2. When you Join a pool you need a coin address, can I use the one generated when you run command magid getnewaddress or do I get it from elsewhere?

3. As per the tutorial, when you run the command magid getinfo you can get the error couldn't connect to server, if several hours has passed, what should I check to resolve this issue?

4. After you begin to mining, if you run the command magid getinfo you can get your balance, how much time you should wait until see a value there?

5. When I run the command magid listtransactions the only thing listed its [ ], what does this mean?

and last but not least

6.  If a I want to add a different server, for example an x86 Linux server, what information should I have in mind?, I mean, using the same account and everything else

Regards
