I'd really would like to and tried to use minepeon, but it couldn't connect to the internet, don't know why. I tried many many times and hours and asked in the thread, but it didn't work. As time ran away I tried something else and it worked, don't know why again...
But I got another SD Card now and am trying again...
Thanks c789, trying this too.
I'm not at home (for Work at another Town) and the Router/Network is a bit weird here.
Topic: Help with Autostart Mining RasPi (Read 801 times)
you can also put all that into a .sh file and add @reboot script.sh to your crontab
Using the raspberian OS, I set mine to automatically login by editing /etc/inittab

Add this line below it (here, pi is the user)
Now that you're automatically logged in, I'm guessing that your rc.local file should now start the mining process.
If you have security concerns, do NOT do what I just posted

As above, I would recommend MinePeon. It's pretty simple to set up and get running. They're saying that theres going to be a new update very soon with an overhaul of the web interface.
There's a thread in this sub forum if you want to have a look.

I highly recommend using MinePeon, a RasPi distro specifically for BitCoin mining. You just install it to your SD card, plug it in, boot up, input pool settings, and you're good!
Hello,
I finally got it with this Manual (http://learn.adafruit.com/piminer-raspberry-pi-bitcoin-miner/initial-setup-and-assembly) to mine with my PasPi.
But the Autostart Setup shown there doesn't work for me. They told me to put
cd /home/pi/PiMiner
python PiMiner.py &
cd ..
nohup ./cgminer-3.1.1/cgminer --config /home/pi/cgminer.conf -S /dev/ttyUSB0 -S /dev/ttyUSB1 >/dev/null 2>&1&
to rc.local
But when I reboot or unplug I have to start manually via SSH.
Any Ideas to fix this?
I'm running Occidentalis v0.2
I tried to run Minepeon, but it sadly didn't work for me. There was a problem with the Network I wasn't able to fix.
