Did you miss the Sudo?..lol
thanks Sweaving - i have followed the instructions as per previous posts
-- enabl-bmsc
then..
made
but after made just get error which says something like - you don't have permission to access this file
I can still start the miner but it doesn't recognise as before..
any ideas?

greenemeso:-
For ant miners you should --enable-bmsc during the cgminer setup
the cgminer.conf file you have there should only be used for 3.1.1 on BE's (so leave it alone as 3.8.5 will not look for it)
also when you run do
sudo ./cgminer etc........
this should fix the privalidge error.
Olddiesel:-
Good job figuring out the power supply! things like that you always assume are ok!
Mrclown:-
Not a clue how many it can handle, buy 100 plug em in and let us know!..lol

cd ./cgminer

I'm getting the same error message on my pi - did you resolve??
greenemso
I assume you have but I'll just make sure......... You have changed the relevant fields to suit your mining pool and your workers account + password? (in bold text below)
./cgminer --bmsc-options 115200:20 -o mint.bitminter.com:3333 -u bitcoinco_demo -p x --bmsc-freq 0781 --usb :1
yes - i'm now getting it to boot up in cg miner ok, but saying usb init, open device failed, err -3, you don't have privilege to access...
edit.. i just went back to adafruit instruction as I was using BE before ant miner.. states that icarus code is for BE only.. can anyone confirm what should be here or shall i just remove?

How many U1 that PI can handle?
hmmm, yes they do get v warm when running at correct speed.
Does the Antminer run ok on say a normal windows pc? Or do you have a 2nd unit to test to see if its duff or not?
Other than that i would unplug all devices, completely turn off, then back on insert only the antminer and try.
if not go back though and perhaps re-do all steps. (Should be fairly quick at doing these by now! i know i am..lol)
just one more thing to check, there may be somthing wrong in your start line! somthing as simple as a space in the wrong place, or only 1 - instead of 2 --. if the freq and bauds are not sent correctly then i think it goes to a low default setting.
sudo ./cgminer.exe --bmsc-options 115200:20 -o stratum.bitcoin.cz:3333 -u oldiesel.worker1 -p x --bmsc-freq 0981
drop the .exe! (this is only for windows)

You don't make this up! ;-(
I ran the install again, in the right and complete order.
still low speeds,...damn.
Checking the USB hub powersupply,......Guess what,....DEAD!!
So after all the supply of the PI was feeding it.
Hooked on a universal net adapter ,both Ants running now on speed.
Hi I am new to the forum. I have a question regarding piminer with BEs and Antminer. If two instances of CGminer need to be running to support BEs and Antminers on the same hub, will piminer be able to display information from both instances of CGminer? Sorry if the question sounds confusing. Thank you in advance!

In respose to your sugestion of BFminer, i have to admint i did almost switch to it! lol, but im not realy in this to make loads of bitcoin, i enjoy solving problems(Sad i know) and for me this was a good one for me to get my teeth into, especially as there was little or no info around on running both Antminers and BE on a Pi with CGminer.
Thanks for posting the comment, and the alternative for others who may have been getting to frustrated with it all.

do you have them in a Powered hub? as the Pi by itself cannot supply enough juice to run any miners!
Yep, they run in a powered hub, 2Amps.
But they not even get warm.
Now i realize what possibly went wrong, i didn't run the part:
If you are using a Raspberry Pi do the following:
sudo nano /boot/cmdline.txt
Add the following code at the end of the first line (on the same line as the other text)
slub_debug=FP
I did it after all, do this mean i have to repeat the following steps?
Or do a complete re-install?
parallela will be a good option?
That explains it, I have tried this myself but did not realize I needed a powered hub to run miners. I thought you could mine without one and it got me nowhere. Do you recommend any particular type or brand of powered hub, or will any bog standard one do just as good a job as an expensive one?

Try a different frequency maybe.

Hi,
I have a Raspberry Pi and 2 Antminer U1
I followed up all the steps Sweaving posted here, and my stuff is running
Started up with sudo ./cgminer.exe --bmsc-options 115200:20 -o stratum.bitcoin.cz:3333 -u oldiesel.worker1 -p x --bmsc-freq 0981
As you see I started it op for 2.0Gh/s
But i seems to have difficulties "Getting up to speed"
They run @ 200 Mh/s max each,...what do i need to optimize?
If ya'll would have stopped being suborn you could use the link Laxe and I posted and run bfgminer which would run your BE and U1's in one single instance/program. Just install the dependencies required in the readme for bfgminer then follow the instructions on the link. Sure is a lot easier than trying to make cgminer work correctly until they update it.
Anyway for future users of Pi...read the linkage.
