I imaged an external hard-drive that is now connected to the new motherboard.

Image to 16gb or larger USB key. You may have trouble setting the powerlimit if the USB key you use is slow. You can use any 16gb or larger USB key; however, I highly recommend using the lexar drive as it was one of the fastest USB keys I tested and is less than $8.

That's your issue. Use a flash drive.

ok! i will do that with a 32gb! I bought a 16gig earlier today but the v015 is just a bit larger than the 15.5 gig or so on the usb drive!

I imaged an external hard-drive that is now connected to the new motherboard. I booted it up, went into BIOS to set the external hard-drive as boot priority, save & reboot, then it brings me to the screen linked in imgur.

If i select "*ubunto" it loads some lines of code, where it keeps saying "critical error", still finished then asks for m1-desktop-login. If i enter something for login, then it asks for PW. Do i need to register a user/pw with ubunto?

Also, i have all GPU's unplugged from the mobo since only way i can get display to work is by doing that and using the port on the mobo.

thanks in advance!

Once OpenSSH is enabled you can make your changes using the Putty client from another PC on your LAN and remote control it and even make config changes without always having to reboot.

How do you restart the mining after modifying the config through SSH?

ctrl+c a few times until the miner stops, then type:

Code:

bash '/media/m1/1263-A96E/oneBash'

If any of your settings don't apply and/or you just feel it needs a soft reboot then

Code:

sudo reboot

The image already has ubuntu 14.04 desktop on it. Before you use it you need to edit the 'OneBash' file your nvOC flash drive will place onto a small windows partition. Once that config file has been changed to point towards your address and to change OC/etc settings you don't need to touch anything when it boots - any prompts for passwords will be filled in automatically by the script, so don't interrupt it. Mine goes from cold boot to mining in ~2.5 minutes.

Gotcha. Since I'm mining ZEC, but currently havent set up an address yet, i guess the obvious is to wait until I have a ZEC address before booting ?

I wouldn't wait, let it run on the default address so you can get things tuned until you're able to update your address.

also, if i want to change the onebash file later on, do I have to change it on windows ( my laptop) or can i do it directly in ubunto? Thanks again =)

You don't have to change it on windows. I would suggest starting that way and first making sure your hardware is good to go by letting it boot all the way and see if mining commences. Once you're good there then you can search back 1-2 pages looking for the posts regarding SSH and screen. Once OpenSSH is enabled you can make your changes using the Putty client from another PC on your LAN and remote control it and even make config changes without always having to reboot.

I was able to modify the oneBash file in Ubuntu after it booted up. First, close the terminal. Then modify one bash. The open terminal. The script will take off.

On ZEC. I'm very new to ZEC. I'm using Eleos in Windows. Is this program all there is to get ZEC, ZCL, and ZEN? It just seems to easy.

Hi. Thank you for this OS! I spend hours trying to get Windows working so I could use NiceHash but I couldn't get Windows 7 working. Then I found a 16GB flash drive I had hidden in a drawer.

How can I modify the pool address to enter a username/password so I can monitor on the pools website.

Ex: I'm mining ZCL on coinmine.pl. I just registered and want to see what my rates are from there.

Note: I'm averaging 433 sol/s mining ZCL on EVGA 1070 SuperClocked. And 26 Mh/s on ETH.

Total noob here: I have a new rig just built and i'm trying to decide which OS to boot onto it.

Given i have no OS right now, does nvOC also serve as the OS? Or do i have to DL ubunto first?

I'm asking because i went ahead and imaged nvOC anyways, booted it onto the rig, saw a lot of critical core errors, saw the ubunto loading screen and now its asking for m1-desktop-login.

Re: 1070 Founders Edition OCing

I think I've found numbers I'm pretty happy with on my 1070 FEs. I'm running 5 of these on these settings and it's been very stable. Along the way of dialing this in I tried various power settings, and my observation has been that additional power had no discernible effect on hashrate, at least with the config I am running (I experienced my first OC pushback/limit at cc 200 mc 1700 and pl 145W.

My stable config is:

   __CORE_OVERCLOCK=200
   MEMORY_OVERCLOCK=1700

   pl: 110W

   31.6 MH/s average per gpu over the past 12 hours. 620W at the wall.

GPU0 t=53C fan=90%, GPU1 t=55C fan=90%, GPU2 t=58C fan=90%, GPU3 t=54C fan=90%, GPU4 t=52C fan=90% (ambient room temp is 80F).

Question: After going into screen mode is there a command I can drop on to the end of the bash command (with a pipe) that would let me log terminal output to an ascii log file in addition to monitoring live via SSH? Anyway to use an environment variable for the output .log file to have the filename begin with YYYY-MM-DD?

TIA Grin

Does changing the GPU settings using the Nvidia X Server Settings window happen in real time? I was trying to make some core and mem adjustments using this method. It seems to work but not for the fan settings. I'm just not 100% sure on this.

Hello,

just wanted to ask, is there a way to change voltage like you can in Msi afterburner by pressing CTRL+F to get to "Voltage/Frequency curve editor", and if not is there an alternate solution or could it be implemented in the future?

Thanks!

Glad to see people are hooking OP up with some hashes as thanks for his time and hard work!

https://eth.nanopool.org/account/0xe12bdd454997e443ec0cae6bebb6bb3c74242aae

If you're running nvOC and it's working out well for you consider running your rig for a while (even if it's only an hour!) with his address to encourage him to continue developing this highly useful platform. You rock, OP! We appreciate you.

I completely agree! Once I get this next 6 GPU rig up, was thinking of pointing it to him for a bit

I tried to use it with 2 1060 cards, I could not log into the termintal M1: I kept putting miner1 as the password and it would not work.?

Firstly many thanks for creating this masterpeice it reminds me of other great works from the likes of Bach, Mozart and Picaso.

I tried searching this thread for the answer so apologies if it was answered already, I also scrolled through the first 15 pages.

Question 1 :

I have 2x ASUS Nvidia GTX-1070s running ( soon to be 9 ) but I cant seem to optimize the MHs for ETH mining.

On stock settings I get 26 MHs a card but I have seen windows users achieve 30-33 by changing the card frequency. I am the first to admit I am a bit of a tech noob and I am sure the answer is obvious.

I tried various global CC and Memory overclocking but it didnt seem to make any difference. ( i.e 120/400 , 150/600 , 200/600 )

Essentially I closed the terminal, updated the details on onebssh ( while in Linux ) and then re ran the terminal but no change to MHs from stock 100/100 settings.

Question 2 :

Also is it possible to start all GPUS when running the terminal? GPU 0 always starts but then I need to hit "1" to fire up GPU 2.

Question 3 :

Has anyone found a good fan speed and power limit setting for these cards?

Question 4 : Is it normal to have to enter "miner1" 3x at the start? It looks like the config file is supposed to auto populate it but on the image I downloaded 2 days ago this is not the case.

Any other tips alpreciated, and again apologies if these questions were already answered.

Answer 1 : i know eth is high right now and you want to mine it but nvidia cards are not as good as rx cards on mining eth so i would stick with zec thats my option tho
i only use nicehash pools for mining or selling how ever you want to look at it. and a 1070 farm will make more on zec than eth selling to nicehash.

Answer 2 : in the onebash file at the bottom there is the command line for claymore eth miner. try adding in the detect gpu settings see if it auto start them that way

Answer 3 : i have mine is a room with a temp of 95-105F and keep fan speeds at 75 and the cards stay around 68-71C

Answer 4 : you dont even have to have a screen or keyboard for this OS to work out of the box. i know it does say enter password but you dont have to do anything at all

Tips : i run my 1070s zotecs with a CC of +200 and MC of +900 with a PL of 125. ALSO linux is slower than windows when it comes to mining. But linux is more stable than windows
you will have a ton of more up time on linux then on windows. So you can ask yourself this. More up time or faster speeds...

Hi @fullzero,

just a suggestion - could you add the ability to mine UBQ? I'm pretty sure claymore can do it if you set allcoins to -1.

I'm saying this because it has recently jumped to the top of the whattomine.com list for dagger-hashimoto coins a few times.

If claymore has the ability to mine this coin then all you have to do is change come setting in claymore command line in the onebash file very simple!! Don't be scared to try it

OK, got it to work after a few reboots. Is there a way to adjust the powerlimit of the individual gpus while they're running?

Yes, there are two ways. You need to open another terminal window and pass these commands

(This one does all GPU's currently under the system and xxx equal power amount) sudo nvidia-smi -pl xxx

(This one will do each individual power setting, just change the X to 0-12 and then pass power limit on xxx) sudo nvidia-smi -i X -pl xxx
