figured this might be relevant, as the rockminer r-box uses the same drivers as the eruptors (both use asicminer chips).  I currently have one running on a pc, but would like to run it on my mavericks-osx-late-2012 macbook.  every time I plug the r-box in, it times out when trying to tune the frequency - anyone ever resolve this with the eruptors?

thanks in advance guys!

Congratulations. Have fun mining.

MacMiner includes cgminer and bfgminer: http ://fabulouspanda.co.uk/macminer/

I haven't really used it though. If you want to run it from the command line:

Code:
/Applications/MacMiner.app/Contents/Resources/cgminer/bin/cgminer -o POOL_URL -u USERNAME -p PASSWORD
