SO I can pull up AMT's web interface but it's not recognizing the modules.
I keep looking at the CG miner logs and get a cgminer not connected page.
plug direct into the pi at start up with a hdmi and usb keyboard log in to the pi with u root p amt then type killall cgminer. this will stop the mining process then type cgminer -DT this will give you a massive list. better if you can putty into the miner then you can scroll back up but basically the info displayed will be a load of numbers and at bottom of each section summat like 8 chips with 250~ cores. if you get that its working ok. and that value should be repeated per card. then jus type cgminer again and input pool details you get the old fasioned cgminer layout so you can see card stats
THanks, I'll do this in the morning when I'm clear headed, I really don't need to fuck up the new miner. Sounds like this should simplify things.
So I pluged into the pi with my extra monitor.
I entered root and amt.
Right away it was showing the ip address my router assigned it. It also showed ) gh/s
So I tried
Killall cgminer ,and was met with, No Process Killed (seems it wasn't running)
cgminer -DT ,was met with, command line options set a device that doesn't exist.
When I typed cgminer it did the following.
Checking board 2...
failed to write to fdesc -1 : Bad File Descriptor
No A1 Chip-Chain detected
SPI '/dev.spidev).0' :mode 1, bits 8, speed 2000
it repeats that for board 3 and 4
after board 4 it then says
All devices disabled, cannot mine
So I wasn't presented with the ability to enter my pool info. Essentially I have a $5795 raspberry pi.
Any thoughts?
I went through and rechecked all my cabling, rechecked that the backplane was properly seated, rechecked the backplane cable. GPIO is well seated.
The only thing (and this could obviously be the problem) is that the raspberry pi doesn't want to to seat well with the main board. The yellow video jack pushes up against the main board (poor design choice) I'm thinking I'll just unplug the pi from the main board and see what the pi says when I run it that way to see if it gives the same info.
I could always get an additional GPIO cable and use that to connect the pi to the main board.
