Update v1064:
- fixed "GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT is not specified!"
Thanks titanic!
I was getting tired of ssh'ing into my rigs to edit the start.sh file.
This will increase performance and reliability for mining.
Yay!

Do you support nvidia cards?
I already sent him my nvidia scripts, so expect soon support for nvidia 
I have it in plans but not soon.
I can start thinking about it after April.

This problem can easily be solved by making an initrd environment and loading it to ram using ramfs where execution of scripts will not bother actual filesystem.
Yep, its already there but still, updates needs to be write to usb , and that is weak spot Already using tmpfs for everything
miner@simpleminer:~$ df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
udev 3.8G 0 3.8G 0% /dev
tmpfs 767M 86M 682M 12% /run
/dev/sda2 6.5G 2.0G 4.5G 31% /
tmpfs 3.8G 0 3.8G 0% /dev/shm
tmpfs 5.0M 0 5.0M 0% /run/lock
tmpfs 3.8G 0 3.8G 0% /sys/fs/cgroup
tmpfs 300M 16K 300M 1% /tmp
tmpfs 3.8G 12K 3.8G 1% /var/log
tmpfs 3.8G 96M 3.7G 3% /var/tmp
tmpfs 3.8G 0 3.8G 0% /var/log/apt
/dev/sda1 8.9M 3.5K 8.9M 1% /mnt/user
tmpfs 767M 0 767M 0% /run/user/1000
Switch to mLibc or ucLibc 64bit strap the default config file to initrd file and use dd to update to new images. I think that old projects like m0n0wall and pfSense are good starting point to do unified system. I am already onto this but only in my farm.

Hi.
Yep, that is worth mentioning accually.
I always used more expensive usb thumbs.
a-data and corsair ones are best for me but also its worth to buy pendrives which have 10-20MB/s write speed at least.
Also if you have any problems, try inserting pendrive to usb 2.0 instead of 3.0
With pendrives there is also other problem. They have much shorter life period but with more expensive i had really few problems.
Anyway SSD is best choice but still ssd are much more expensive. (I am using all pendrives
Bet would be buing very cheap ssd, meaby i could find it and start selling to people with my OS. (still dont know if that would make economic sense)

-is it RX OS ?
- what gpus ?
- what core and memory clocks ?
- do they have custom bios with modded timings ?
- which miner are you using ? optiminer ? mining zcash/komodo ?
3x RX 480 8GB (2 powered and 1 unpowered risers)
Standard bios, clocks,...
Optiminer - zcash
The beta kernel is better, but not ideal. It may be a day fine, and the next day I must 2-5 times a day to restart the rig.
Today I switch from USB to SATA and 3 hours without errors for now.
Hey, I do not have any more problems after making the transition from USB to SSD, I have a beta kernel. (4 days for now, only 1 restart for OC)
Yep. The reason is quite a bit of variance in USB 3.0 sticks.
I have sticks new sealed rated for up to 130 Mbps they wrote at 10 Mbps
I have sticks new sealed rated for up to 100 Mbps they wrote at 50 Mbps.
That is wrong and of course the underperforming sticks sucked at running the os.
With that in mind I went to all ssd and or pcie ssds.
I am happy with simplemining so.

Same here... i think it is a optiminer problem..
In my optionion, Optiminer or meaby alghoritm itself has problem (but optiminer more likely) and it just hangs gpu so it stays at 300mhz
I still dont have time to test this problems becasue i need to write inscructions for SRR becasue shipping is going right now
Accually all packages should be sent withing 7 days.
Try decreasing intensity by setting -i 4/3/2 until you find the sweet spot of stability. All my RX cards suffer from default intensity level, I have reduced it to 4 and it seems stable.
Until there is no open source miner noone can guarantee stability for your rigs. Also keep in mind that amdgpu/amdgpu-pro has poor powerplay(amd overdrive) support and I really don't advise you to clock the cards using sysfs, for now just do only bios mods without using sysfs dpm clocks.

Ok guys, i figured it out. For those who have stuck gpus on optiminer showing 300mhz, what you have to do is run claymore first for couple of minutes where all gpus should run normal and then switch to optiminer. All gpus should work flawlesly. If you need to restart miner again on optiminer see if it shows 300mhz again. If it does just repeat the process.
Let me know if that worked for you

Would greatly appreciate you looking into the Optiminer issue. Thanks so much for your hard work on all of this.
How about writing into optiminer thread - asking if they have similar issues ?

I will need to sit on this and debug whats going on with this optiminer
is there a way to flash bios on my rx480´s rig? or any conf. to get 30mh from each card?
You should flash your rigs using windows.In future there wil be flashing tool for linux.
Also there wil be in future option to set specific clocks in each gpu.
