Wallet for OS X

http://imgur.com/a/fU4JUYou should not be plotting on a mac, unless you have a mac pro, because it would have enough power to plot large files. If you have mac pro you can use this fork of dcct_miner to make your plots. Usage. If it dosen't work you should be able to use another linux plotter.

I am new to mining and Burst looks like a good place for me to give this a try. I am trying to figure out how to setup a miner and wallet for my Mac. Can anyone point me to instructions on how to do this? I don't see a native wallet for the Mac, so should I set one up on my linux machine and just use the Mac for the mining? My Mac is the one with the space to try Burst, my other machines really don't have the space to give this a try. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!Longsnowsm

If you have a macbook you should plot on a windows/linux machine and transfer the plots to the mac. You can do this in smaller steps, something like 50 gb at a time. The bigger the steps the faster read speed, if you only have space for small plots, you should optimize them, to improve the read speed.
Plotting on a macbook is not worth it. I learned this while making the guide for OS X, it's 4x faster to plot with cpu on my main computer, but if you have a mac pro you should be good. You can almost use the linux guide, because OS X is very similar to linux. (Same origin)

-IceBurst

what are the terminal commands. image is cut off.
-
you need to make the file executable. in terminal, cd into the directory, then issue the following command
chmod +x run.sh
hit enter
after that just run the file by entering the following still within the same directory:
./run.sh
That is all you need to do

The above problem has been solved. I provided him with live support through TeamViewer.
I did the exact thing you described.

@FrilledShark Thanks again for your help. I greatly appreciate it.

"-bash: ./run.bat: Permission denied" this is the exact error I get when I put it into terminal. MacBook Pro Mid-2015 13-inch Retina Display btw if that makes a difference.
