https://github.com/jstefanop/Apollo-Miner-Binaries/releases/This is the ONLY place you should download these binaries from. If that changes this post will be updated.
Detailed instructions are on the GitHub and inside the start scripts. As noted in the pre-order this is command-line based software and only intended for more advanced users. Support for the software is limited and initial binaries are for Windows and 64 Bit x86 and ARM based Linux systems.
This software is only for users that do not have a Full Package/Node version. Please follow the instructions above in the first post on how to hook up your standard unit to your Apollo Full Package unit for a plug and play experience.
Hello,
I wanted to throw out a suggestion. I am a big fan of the standard units, i love running them on basically whatever machine I have lying around...they are very flexible in that way. I am also a big fan of Start 9's embassy OS. I wanted to suggest creating a service on embassy OS that would work in their operating system to click and run any standard units one could have plugged into the computer running embassy OS. Embassy OS has a suite of applications meant to be run for self-hosting various services (such as bitcoin core, lightning node, but also other things like jellyfin and nextcloud...really anything that a user would want running on a computer 24/7). So, since that computer with embassy OS will be running 24/7, if I could plug my standard units into my machine running embassy, and open a service in that OS to fire up the miners, point them to the right pool, etc...I think that would be pretty amazing. Also - I think it could really benefit the futurebit apollo project as there may be many users of embassy OS that would love to buy a futurebit standard miner and try it out with their embassy OS upon release of this cool new service
Anyways, here is their github link:
https://github.com/Start9Labs/embassy-os/releases. They have a pretty active community marketplace, where developers of other projects can create services in the embassy OS ecosystem. Thanks for your consideration, hopefully this finds the right eyeballs for review.
