Also sometimes it does not find the /media/m1/**** directory , workaround is to open the folder (happens on USB flash and harddrive), but this is not really workaround because it needs human intervention.
If you know other way of doing it you should implement it, this is recommendation.
Or maybe I've got corrupted image, i don't know.

Take a look at these two posts:

If a USB key cannot find oneBash on its windows partition you probably should re image that key.

What is the maximum number of NVIDIA 1080 TI cards we can mine using NVOS per rig?  Also what brand and version of the 1080 TI that can do 700-780 sols per 1 viewer's comment?  Have the 1080 regular performance improved at all with the latest mining software or still in the 500s SOL range?

I only have 3x 1080ti so I am not sure how many it can handle.  Using 1080tis will have a slightly lower maximum card limit than 1070s or 1060s, and would most likely begin to have quarks before then.  I would avoid using more than 8 1080tis on one rig (and this might be too many).

I think citronick was using full tdp or higher with an aftermarket card.  I believe it is this one: Gigabyte AORUS GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Xtreme Edition but I would check with him and make sure.


I have that 1080ti it's a monster
Do 220 core 900mem
It's a power limit of 200 you'll get 690-710sols
Without the Powerlimit it's an easy 710+ card

This card looks like a beast; my EVGAs become unstable even at +150cc sometimes.

Try it this morning but it's often hang, need to hard reset the whole system with +150cc and +500mc for 6x 1080ti
How to auto type the miner1 password, I need to type it 3 times before the miner running?

No you don't, the script will do this for you. Just wait a bit and see..

Maxximus007 is correct.  I would recommend trying a lower cc if your system is hanging.  mc can be higher:

try +100cc and +900mc

Hi, overclocking is just not working, either the script is corrupted or some driver version issue.
Both "individual" and "all-cards" are not getting pointed clock settings.

I'm using the image for Z270.

It is always possible to have a bad image.  To minimize the occurance of this always wait a few seconds after imaging indicates 100% before closing the imaging program, and always ensure you eject the usb before removing it from the build computer.

Which z270 image are you using?  What motherboard and cards are you using?

Let me know.

Hi,
Here is the image:
8xOC_with_first_m2_ASUS_PRIME_Z270-A__nvOC_v0014.zip

Its the only one which i found on that point for my motherboard Asus Prime Z270-P
Video cards are Asus Dual 1060 6gb.


Also i saw some answers with screenshots about adding attributes.
Well i see a few empty rows after "coolbits" commands and then miner is running. I don't see these rows with attributes.

P.S for the guys with same cards, what i found on windows is GPU clock -200 Mhz , and memory clock +850 Mhz super stable at 23 Mh/s ETH.


I don't think all your cards are OCing, I have sent you a message with a link to an image that should work.  Let me know if it does.

Awesome job fullzero...thanks so much.

I have a 5 card 1070 rig humming along on DGB. Speeds are slower though.Usually I get around 430mh on a 1070 , only getting about 275mh on nvOC.  

Is there a way to adjust the intensity setting? On windows I can adjust it by adding -i 26 to the bat file.

Did you get the best results for skein with Alexis?
Do you mine DGB directly with it?

Yes I get the best results with Alexis.

No I prefer to get the DGB converted to BTC.


in this section of oneBash:

if [ $COIN == "DGB" ]
then
HCD='/home/m1/TPccminer/ccminer'
ADDR="$DGB_ADDRESS"

until $HCD -a skein -o $DGB_POOL -u $ADDR -p c=BTC
   do
   echo "FAILURE; reinit in 5" >&2
   sleep 5
done
fi

add -i 26 to the line : until $HCD -a skein -o $DGB_POOL -u $ADDR -p c=BTC

so it looks like:

until $HCD -a skein -o $DGB_POOL -u $ADDR -p c=BTC -i 26

and save.

I will add the Alexis to the next version.

Hi, saw the new oneBash file, V0015. Support for 12 GPU's, that would be a monsterrig Wink..

About the images, is there a need to download these again? I see these have V0014 in their filename, so not sure if they're modified.

Not sure if possible, but could make your work a bit easier: Perhaps a unified image, and the files like oneBash and the different Xorg.conf files on the windows partition? At startup, copy or use the selected one. Or are there many other changes inside the image?

Another suggestion, separate the config part and the execution part in two files, the second including the first. That would make it easier to just replace the execution file when there are small changes or typo's.

You could shorten some parts like:
Code:
if [ $MANUAL_FAN == "YES" ]
then
  for f in $GPUS
    do
      $gpu=$((f-1))
      ${NVD} -a [gpu:${gpu}]/GPUFanControlState=1
      ${NVD} -a [fan:${gpu}]/GPUTargetFanSpeed=${FAN_SPEED}
    done
fi

When I release a new version I will explain what is different and members can decide if they want to download and reimage with the newer version.  At this point most improvements are to help with portability or add another client / enable the use of more cards with one rig.  If you only mine ZEC and all your cards OC: you may not want to bother downloading and updating the next version.

Eventually I will add an updating program and make the need to update images irrelevant.

The next version should work with almost all Intel motherboards to OC up to 12x cards (if the cpu + mobo + adapters can handle it).  I have given it to a few members to test and swapped it out on all my rigs.  So far it works with all but the z97 MSI gaming 5 (7x cards) and ryzen motherboards.  Of course each mobo will most likely require some bios changes; I don't know any way around that requirement.

I know a lot of the implementation section of oneBash is overly procedural and could be more succinct.  Being the way it is also helps me distinguish between different versions, and I haven't settled on a max card limit yet.  Splitting the settings and implementation would be helpful once I have settled on a max number of cards or added an update program.  IMO only needing to change one file is considerably easier.  I also like exposing people to bash scripts.

Which image can i use for an  ASUS PRIME Z270-P for 7 EVGA Geforce GTX 1070 SC cards using 1 M2 PCIE??

Hey fullzero do you have an image for an asrock z97 extreme 4 mobo?

Have a 3 rig setup (2) 6 x MSI rx580's and (1) 6 X  GTX1060 setup.
 
If you could image me a file that'd be awesome. Very much appreciated.

I have messaged you a link to an image that should work for the 6x 1060 rig.  For the 2 6x rx580s you can try my amdOC beta if you want; the link is on the OP in red.

Great thanks man really much appreciated.
