NEW TO THIS AND I NEED HELP
-
Hi John. I am new to the world of BURST. Good luck on the mining. I have been thinking about purchasing an external hard drive to try it myself. Please let me know the outcome of your current plotting attempt.
-
@john8kelvin Can you post a screenshot of your cmd window? I think your plot just finish since it says d:\burst> in the end, but wih a screenshot i can say you with more certain ;D
-
@gpedro this is another one an on nw

-
@john8kelvin Can't see the image... try to reupload it please
-
@gpedro i tried to mine and i got this...{"errorDescription":"Unknown account","errorCode":5}.. plss what does this mean?
-
@john8kelvin Have you done the reward assignment before launch the miner?
-
@gpedro i think i should start all over again....i really dont know how all this works....
this is the screenshot of what am ploting.....
-
@gpedro plss i want to start all over again.....plsssss or what should i do?
-
@john8kelvin Error 5 --> go to Burst Client --> Start Mining --> Do you get errorCode 5? [..] --> Button change --> For example our Pool Text Field below BURST-YXZW-JH7M-QKR9-9PKBN and your passphrase above. Then Start-Mining Example: 217.81.8.176 Pool Address.
For plots the only thing you need to do, is write plots --> Plot this drive --> Set your Burst Address --> Set GB and CPU example --> 75 % of cores --> And then let it flow, it takes time, sometimes it doesnt show up the current status, so hit enter and it is on the current status.
best regards,

@MrWho plss do i have to download any other app.. because its only the burst wallet i have on my system...
but i have started the plotting , using the direction you gave me.....( --> Plot this drive --> Set your Burst Address --> Set GB and CPU example --> 75 % of cores -->)

this is work is going on nw. is it normal?
-
Yeah let it flow, how many GB you plot? There is a Nonce Calculator so you can calculate how long it takes, if you compare with your current nonce.
-
@john8kelvin No you do not need to download anything else from the picture everything looks normal. It just takes time to plot. More time than you think it would. It is not like say buying a piece of hardware for bitcoin and typing in some user name and password and away you go. Plotting is very time consuming. The better the computer the faster the plotting goes. If you have a High End GPU you can try plotting with that which will make it go even faster. Like I said it took me 2 days to plot 2 tb.
-
@MrWho 50gb like u said
-
@john8kelvin you sent a message
-
my first time plotting i used the all in one client to plot a 2 TB drive took 128 hours LMAO i thought it was never going to finish, i use GPU ploter now but that took a wile to learn how to set up properly for optimum plotting
