I have order 386 that is "processing", form this thread I can see that people with order numbers much higher have already received their boards. I decided to stay with burnin and not withdraw my order because I thought it would go fast and smooth.
On top of that I've sent a lot of e-mails and received not even one reply.

Which chip batch were you in? I was in zefir batch and 3 and got my bitburner XX this week. Remember orders were sorted by pay date, not order placement date, so order #s might not be in order. I think order # was set before payment.

They were also sorted by batch #, i.e. whichever batch arrived first got produced first. Shouldn't be to many batches left though.

Zefir batch 3, Burnin order #6xx. Still processing, this thread is making me think my order is at the end of the line? I didnt think so

Burnins psu can power 2 boards easily... even 10 bbxx overclocked to 450mhz.

You terminated the boards correctly with 2 jumpers each on both ends of the stacking cable? Did you build the stackingcable correctly?

As i only have 2 boards together, they are both terminated like burnings FAQ.
And burning supplied the cable.

I bought everything to remove any chance of my fucking it up =)

Thats strange. Maybe try firmware upgrade in case an old one is running. Are both boards powered the same way? Maybe try changing the power cable from one to another just in case its the cable or the output from psu for that cable is broken. But when it works when you use it with 2 usb-cables instead stacked then i dont know whats the reason.

Guess i shouldn't have gotten the power supplies from you then since they can't power your own boards =)

I guess you've should read the specs more carefully.
The Mean Well is good for 60W (http://www.burninmining.com/product/mean-well-gs60a12-p1j/), which is good enough for up to ~372MHz:

Got my 2 burners yesterday and i'm having trouble with one of the 2 boards i got.
My 10chip works just fine at around 4gh .
But my 20chip board keeps rebooting every 30sec.

Currently testing them without the CAN untill i can get them both running.

I'm using "--avalon-options 115200:2:10:d:400 --avalon-auto --queue 4 --bitburner-voltage 1285".

Any1 got an idea to why my board keeps rebooting?

I'd look at what's powering the XX board.

Spot on!
He is using a 5Amp PSU, that is only good for about 380Mhz at 1.2V.

Guess i shouldn't have gotten the power supplies from you then since they can't power your own boards =)
And the CAN BUS cable doesn't seem to work either, both boards alone is fine, but when connected and each board has been terminated.
I get like 50% HW errors when i try it.

Those of us who are running both Bitburner XX boards and Bitburner Fury boards might be interested in a new option in cgminer 3.6.6 that allows you to mine with both types of board in a single cgminer instance, and set different avalon-options for the XX and Fury boards.

See https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.3415231 for details.

455MHz @ 32C? Shocked

Are you running them in your fridge???
Anyway I'll try with my air cooled bitburners and "--avalon-auto". Let's see what happens...

For me "--avalon-auto" results in slower hashrates - after about 10h it went down to ~320MHz (starting at 380MHz). I'll try again with v3.4.3, maybe this will result in better rates...

You are saying the pic32 draws power from the usb outlet? If so, how much would that be?
Got those read/write/timeout errors myself on a win machine with zadig.

Also, would it help if i connected the boards separatly instead of chaining them?

Most of the time they work like a charm, but often unexpected and at the worst times they
bring up those errors.

Same here. I used zadig too.

Edit: Works very well after i shut everything down and i power again. Maybe that could be the explication that the pic32 draws too much power.

The PIC32 is NOT powered through USB, the current draw should be negligible.
So far i have no explanation why a powered hub offers more stability.

No problem. I have good stability. The only problem is if i close bitburner's cgminer and i start it again while BBF is running too. Will get a powered hub tho just to have more mobility and options.

Anyone knows what the error: "BTB 0 usb write err:(-7) LIBUSB_ERROR_TIMEOUT usb_write error on avalon_write" means? I have regular bitburner and bitburner-fury chained to PC. Didn't get this error from start, only a few days.

Edit: Rebooting both boards works ok, but i want to know why does this happen.

If you are on windows read the cgminer readme and use zadeg to install usb drivers. If thats not the case then your usb-port might deliver not enough power.

Never had this error prior to BBF. Well i read about the usb port but i have it plugged in my PC ad why does it need power since i'm powering it via PCI-E power cables?

Any link with a good and cheap USB powered hub?

Do you have windows on that pc running? Then you have to use zadeg like i wrote.

If you already used it or if its linux then the usb-port you connected the bitburner too brings too low power. Try another port on your pc or an active usb-hub then. USB-Ports provide power too. And here it seems to be missing some power.
