Hello everyone! I recently got into mining and 2 days ago I finished setting up my first mining rig (6 RX 470 XFX 8GB on a gigabyte H110-D3A with a intel Pentium Dual-Core 3.3 GHz). I use SMOS with claymore 10.5 and thus far I got twice (once every 24h) an error that makes a lot of hardly readable text rain down my screen (I'll attach vid). Any ideas on why this might happen? What should I do to try correct this? I want to let my rig mine while I am 200km away. This error makes it unresponsive to simplemining dashboard commands (I can't reboot/ restart from it) so I'll have to figure out how to use SRR which seems difficult Sad

I usually get that if A) The motherboards isn't setup properly for mining. Disable as much as you can onboard. Try changing PCIE versions from Auto to Gen1 or Gen 2 and test. B) The GPU's are overclocked or undervolted too much.

can anyone with asus b250 mining expert share their bios settings with smos?

i have tried many combinations of settings with 9 cards and smos registers each card but mines less tan 4 hashes each card, i have manyhours trying and cant find good answers online

What GPU's are you using, this info would help?

I have the same issue. Currently I have 4x 570 4Gb and 1x 580 8Gb.
I have 2 more cards I did not test with the mobo yet and 3 more on the way, all RX 570/580 4/8Gb.

Otherwise I have a more general question as well:

I had SMOS running in 1 rig on an SDD.
Can I take this SDD and use it to run SMOS on another rig? Or does SMOS udpates itself and becomes dependant to the HW it runs on (just like windows does)?

EDIT: I forgot to say these 5 cards were running fine (28-29Mh/s) on SMOS on a Z170 PC Mate. Now that I switched everything to the B250 mining expert I have this low (and varying) hashrate problem.

I solved my problem. It was quite stupid but you have to know it: don't use the damn 16x PCIe slot!
After I moved the riser from the 16x slot to a 1x it solved all my hashrate issues.

The above solution did not solve all my problems. The hashrate was good for a while but then went back to crap.

I followed the advice on Reddit and filled my PCI slots in the numerical order (I had read elsewhere it did not matter). Now that I did this my rig is mining at the expected hashrate again.

F*** me it's still not stable. It can run stable for like 6 hours and then the hashrates start to go up and down.

Yesterday when I was running with 5 GPU, it went OK with all of them for hours. Then only 1 of the GPU went down to 3-4Mh/s and the others were all fine.

In the evening I added a fan blowing on the little chip that some people say overheat on the B250.
Then I plugged in a 6th GPU and started mining again.. It was stable for a few hours only and then the issues started again. Not just 1 GPU went down to 3-4Mh/s, many did.

Could it be bad risers? Can they they somehow work for a while and then start causing issues? Identifying the bad one would be hard since they all appear to work, at least for some time.
Could it be the power? I currently run this on a good EVGA gold and a not so good Cooler Master (I had to RMA a corsair, that's why). The only other thing I have running on this breaker is a single light and the fan to cool the rig. The wires are a bit old in my basement where my rig is.

Just an idea, but be mindful of your power situation. I have 4 D3's and they will throw errors if I run too many in the same room because the house wiring is weak, there's not enough power for all of them. If it doesn't trip the breakers, they will throw the errors. Another issue could be your power cables. You want a 14 gauge I believe? And you want them short, longer cables lose efficiency per foot.

The fact that 1000 watts powers one rig fine but fails to do so for the others indicates a power sourcing or delivery issue to me. Potential fire hazard. Take care with your other PSU cables as well, I've read they can catch fire sometimes if overloaded. Better safe than sorry.

Another idea could be poor internet connection that causes errors while updating, ip conflicts or data dropping, but that's unlikely.

Lastly, it could be a problem with the OS itself, which also seems unlikely.

Hi, maybe a motherboard problem?
Putting on and off again and again many times the riser connectors may damage ports.
Yesterday I noticed that one of my Pci-Ex ports cause senseless heat problem to GPU.
What are the last errors of OS before rebooting?

Thank you for the substantial inputs!

I solved the problem, actually found the problem. One PCI port in each card is not working. I added the cards one by one and found the slot causing problem. I tried with one gpu on that slot and it is not working. Sometimes it starts to mine with that slot but lasts 5mins or so. Tbh it does seem unlikely to have one slot in two mobo, but maybe I screwed smth during restarts, changing risers etc. Today I am going back to the store, maybe they can replace if the slot was DOA.

@tytanick

Is it possible that you add this miner : https://www.bminer.me/? It runs much better as Dstm not only with better Rates, it use less Power then all other Miners withe better Hash Rates.

Yes they are

I know

Accually the NV and RX image should and will work on most R9 GPUs as well.
I will soon merge this into ONE image.
The reason that i have separate images is to give more clear info that you CANT MIX amd and nvidia in one rig Tongue

Tytanick Hi,
We have a problem with 2GB RX 550 cards Sad

Hi,

I set up my secong rig now, i want to mine second rig different coin but i couldn't do it. i created new group (H2) but i can not add second rig to this group all rigs grouped under default group.

Code:

H01 GTX 1060 Mix - 2/2 dstm-v0.5.8 --server ***
H02 - 0/0 ccminer-tpruvot-v2.1 -a cryptonight***

Can you please add bminer to your SMOS? https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/annbminer-a-fast-equihashethashcuckaroo29z-miner-for-amdnvidia-gpus-1649-2519271

I have a problem with dstm miner in your SMOS. Using 12 x P106 mining cards, they all work good for about 2-3 hours, after that time, the hashrate is starting to decline from 3700+ Sol/s to 2000 Sol/s for unknown reason. When using ewbf miners, the speed is lower and the machine is restarting more frequently, but the miner stays at 3500+ Sol/s. bminer should be better alternative to both of these miner programs, and I found out that it gives higher performance and also better stability.

I am having the same problem as you..running 12x GTX1060...tried DSTM miner..after 2-5 hours..hashrate drop from 3700 to 2000 sol/s.
EWBF having lower hashrate but somehow stable after running 12 hours...
Developer please help to add in bminer .
Thanks

Hello,

i have Msi 890fxa-gd70 motherboard it is quite old one, when i try to run simpleos by usb screen shows error;

-------------------------
GNU GRUB version 2.02~beta2-36ubuntu3.2

Minimal BASH- like line editing supported. for the first word, TAB lists all possible command completions. Anywhere else TAB list possible device or file completions.

i tried 2 different usb both gave same error and they working at another motherboard.
how can i solve this problem thanks.

Hey guys,

I have Asrock H110 BTC+ motherboards with Sandisk USB3 flash drives for SmOS. Lately I am getting a strange intermittent error the OS stops booting. Here is a short description of it:
....
usb usb2-port1: cannot enable. Maybe the USB cable is bad
usb usb2-port1: unable to enumerate USB device
usb usb2-port1: cannot disable (err = -32)
Gave up waiting for root device. Common problems:
- Boot args (cat /proc/cmdline)
- Check rootdelay= (did the system wait long enough?)
- Check root= (did the system wait for the right device?)
- Missing modules (cat /proc/modules; ls /dev)
ALERT! UUID= does not exist. Dropping to a shell!
...
(initramfs)

It seems to me USB module issue or kernel bug. I have switched to SSD via SATA and did not have the issue yet. Did any of you guys had the same issue? Fix?

I have multiple rigs out there still booting from USB thumb drive and would like to find the culprit and solution. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Had same exact issue. Just take the thumb drive and put it in a normal computer. Fix any errors on it and then reburn the image onto it again. Put your email in the text file. Put drive back and restart everything. Fixed it for me

I have burned the first image with HDD Guru (Raw Image Copy) tool. This time I have tried with etcher.io flashing tool as it has been suggested on the simplemining.net . I will see what is going on soon. I have a brand new Patriot blitz USB flash drive also got Samsung one. Will try both. Hope it will work this time.

Thank you!

Someone post a working command line to mine neoscrypt with rx 580’s
I will tip the person, I am tired of trying to get it to hash right.

Done

you can use the recently added Gateless Gate miner.

AMD cards are very poor in Neoscrypt - you get better results with NVIDIA.

Anyways you can try this below - worked for my 470/480, no need tip

--kernel neoscrypt -o stratum+tcp://neoscrypt.hk.nicehash.com:3341 -u .$rigName -p x -T

TY that line with the -T makes my system crash.

-T I think is for text mode

you can omit this if you want but smos may not be able to format the console properly

if your miner is still crashing then most likely its your OC settings

reset them to stock by putting "0" / "zero" in me core and mem field and 800 or 900 undervoltage

I am getting 127 h/s total for 6 rx 580. I see I should be around 400-500 h/s each. Not 127h/s total. Any other settings to check? Recommendation anyone ?

Hello,
Overclocking is not working for CORE memory on RX570. How can i contact the admin to report the BUG ?

I can monitor the GPU memory with "$ cat /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/amdgpu_pm_info" and the CORE memory never change :/

And my hashrate does't not change when i overclock core memory on core intensive algorithm.. (i'm not mining eth)

Do you have a solution to overclock core ? Maybe manually ?

EDIT: The RX 570 Core clock is locked to 1180 MHz ( I want to achieve 1400/1500)
