Hi,
hmm, drivers should detect it.
Problem is that i dont have RX480 (at least i wont have it because there is still no OC support in linux) - so for now it makes no sense.
In few days i will release completly new OS but it will be for 200/300 AMD series and it will be many features included Smiley

So about RX480 - i will touch it again where there will be OC support - now it makes no sense to build it futherer with no OC support.
Meaby amd will release new driver with new tools soon, we will see.

hi there.

i discovered simplemining few days ago and gave it a try, since i've had stability problems mining with rx480 in windows (and since ethos still did not yet release support for rx480).

But... it looks like my rx480 gfx was not detected...

1. Why is default Ubuntu language Ubuntu Polish (@tytanick I guess you're from Poland)? It would be nicer to have it default in English for those who would like to mess around with some Ubuntu tweaks.

2. Please note that in case this USB stick is booted on a PC with active integrated on-board GPU (for example Intel on-CPU GPU) with AMD card as secondary card, it won't boot properly (X won't load). If possible you should fix this (not sure if it is even possible due to AMD drivers issues) or else warn users to disable integrated on-board GPU before booting from SimpleMining.net Easy OS

Keep up the good work!

Thx for the info.
1. Yes it is polish, meaby i will change it - its simple. i will think about this and make an auto update.
2. Good to know, i didnt had this problem before but i will look into it.

About 16GB Stick.
I am aware of this problem that ome have little more and some have little less GB.
But i cant find any GOOD simple cloning tool.
Anyway i know how to fix this so meaby i will release like two or three different methods to burn it.

anyway i am currently working on some priorities then:
- central web panel to manage all your rigs from one place (idea is to plug and boot, and the rest of changes should be made via web interface - this is most wanted feature - i just need to make sure that all security is ok)
- support for overclocking and fan control (waiting for updated AMD tools for RX400 cards)
but for R9 3xx/2xx cards there will be another OS soon or meaby an optional update to choose which driver version you want: 15.12 with OC support but not RX400 support, OR 16.30 without OC.
- autologin issue - meaby i will give use password in case of problems
- 3 ways of burning img to pendrive (becasue nothing is BEST)

Keep reporting me any bugs. i will fix them.

Since this is the same miners that are available here on the forums the stats will be about the same. When i looked and my mining speeds with 4 380's and one 380x in this test rig was running at 99.5mh ETH and 1287mh SIA. This was over the last 16 hours. Both miners had 0 invalid shares. Also with this OS you just put it on a flash drive and change the wallet address for ETH, BTC, and SIA in the text file that is written on the drive then plug into your rig. When you hit the power button thats all you have to do. It auto starts and runs everything. Its fairly nice especially if you dont know Ubuntu or linux.

Edit: I think it may be best if the SIA miner is changed to around -decri 40. It is a very small loss on ETH and almost double SIA speed.

i picked up two 3.0 32gb sticks for 12 bucks each. I mean compared to ssd or even hdd thats cheap. Why would you complain about something so simple. I have been using this OS on of my rigs for the last 24 hours and is working perfect. It did not help with my detection of my cards however so I am assuming it has to be a bad board. Thnaks for the hard work Tytanick.

There is one annoying thing about this image - it requires "big" 16 GB USB stick ... I tried two different USB sticks which are 16 GB (on is approx 15.500.000.000 bytes, one approx 15.700.000.000 bytes) and USB Image tools is complaining about being too small ... I had to use 32 GB USB stick to make it work. You should make smaller images, that would fit on any 16 GB US stick.

Just an idea of improvment when coming to start up screen options for installing driver option like pre install steps.

Would you like to install drivers etc

AMD
NVID

Next moves on to os drivers such as .net frameworks etc if needed and after this to install miners you want to use on system like ethminer or claymore miner and then to have option to install 1 or the other or both and then crack on with setting up own pools and configurations for them pools to mine on.

I am tempted to mine on linux myself but would like to try this out first when theirs more options and features and usability to it.

I have never used linux or ubuntu. I may should just leave this alone.
thats the point, you dont have to do anything with linux Smiley
just flash it to drive (if you have problem i can help you via team viewer this one time)
then insert your btc,eth and siyacoin addresses and wiola. you can boot it and forget about it.

I want to make this system as simple as possible and in week or two there will be managing rigs via website - simple and easy.

Yeah but my SSD doesnt show up in there. I have downloaded it.  Tongue


reformat the SSD with rufus-2.9.exe then try it may be windows doesn't see it,  I have had  the same issues using some SSD , SD, USB sticks etc  or try disk part in a windows cmd.the SSD might be formatted with some other OS that windows doesn't  like or see for windows fat . if that's your issue .

or offer a one time charge like http://ethosdistro.com/kb/ does i bought a copy of that software i don't use it but still have it and do load it form time to time to see whats new, i like making my own and doing all my own custom set ups etc , after i learn how to .

Sense you said it's a hobby why not just offer some kind of reason able one time charge if you have no plans to make a living doing it and but want to help and feel you need some thing in return, which is cool .

I wish claymores miner offered a one time charge but that might be a little hard because of how it's used , i use it as much as i don't want to but it's kept up to date so right now it's about the best one to use .

It seems fair as alot has went into this. But the only thing is that now claymores miner has 2% and your software has 4% and pool has 1-2% then damn thats alot of percent. I am going to try one rig and see if it will help my cards get up and running. If so then it will be damn worth it to me cause I have about 10 380x cards that are not mining currently due to windows or motherboards issues. Hopefully this will help.
That completly true.
Thats why i made 0% fee.

In future i will think about making pool that will make profit for me and that will be all fee.

Anyway:
RELEASED new update v201
- it will apply itsel when rig is online
- it will add new config option so after update you have to edit config file end enter you siacoin wallet
