Has the program you copy (cp bfgminer /opt/minepeon/bin/bfgminer) executable rights ?

Sorry, I'm a retard - how do I check that? FWIW I can get 4.7 to work, but not 5.1 or any other version, installing the exact same way. Each time it says "bfgminer.service not found". Trouble is that 4.7 won't run the Monarch.

Besides using find to search for these permissions bits, ls displays the permissions when the -l flag is used.

so, try ls -l in that directory and look for X or x flag besides bfgminer file.

If a program is set uid, the "x" in the user area is displayed as a "s" A sticky file or directory is indicated with the last "x" displayed as a "t." If the corresponding execute bit is not set, the letter is capitalized. The capitalization of the letter is a flag that an unusual combination was chosen.

"bfgminer.service not found" means that bfgminer is not running ..

Ok, I'm killing myself here. I've looked at multiple tutorials on how to update bfgminer on minepeon, and when I update it, it doesn't work anymore. I'm trying to get a monarch to work and have zero success.

Can anyone help me? Has anyone gotten the monarch to work on minepeon? If so how can I do it?

These are the steps I'm doing:

sudo su
wget http://luke.dashjr.org/programs/bitcoin/files/bfgminer/latest/bfgminer-5.1.0.txz
tar -xvf bfgminer-5.1.0.txz
cd bfgminer-5.1.0
./configure
make
mv /opt/minepeon/bin/bfgminer /opt/minepeon/bin/bfgminer.old
cp bfgminer /opt/minepeon/bin/bfgminer
exit
sudo systemctl restart miner
