Forget about it.
Waste of time and money.
You can't mine anything with 2x2Gh...
Don't bother.

Hi everyone! This is my first post, and I'm pretty new here, so move this if it's in the wrong section. I'm going to make my first Raspberry PiMiner, and I have all the parts ordered already, so don't suggest a new parts list, please. These are the parts I'm using, I'll post my questions below:
My questions are:
1) Should I use Raspbian with CFGMiner, BFGMiner, or MinePeon (I think I'm using MinePeon)?
2) Whichever of these are "best", how do I make them compatible with my ASICs? (Bitmain U1 Antminers x2)
3) How can I overclock those miners to 2 ghs? (Supposedly they go to 2.2, but I don't want to overclock to much)
4) Can my fan even cool a 2 ghs overclock?
I could use any tips, tricks, and the likewise, so post away!
- Raspberry Pi Model B
- D-Link 7 Port Powered USB Hub (5v, 3a - Only 6 ports will be usable)
- Edimax Nano Wireless Adapter
- Arctic Breeze USB Powered Fan
- SanDisk 8GB SD Card
- 2 Bitmain U1 Antminers
