Raspberry Pi miner?

[pelikancz]

@SuperDan Hi, how did you created plot files on your Odroid? I'm trying to use mdcct (on raspi2), but I stuck at gcc error "unrecognized command line option'-m64'.

Any update?

Also following, as this could be a game changer if people could easily mine on a rpi 3. Burst claims to be able to mine on phones, (which is sort of misleading). so a pi shouldn't be impossible at all In theory.

There are miner that successfully compiled the creepminer on their raspberry pi 3.
https://github.com/Creepsky/creepMiner/issues/78.. scroll at the very bottom and follow the instructions. In the end, the raspberry pi is nothing more than linux.

I wrote a miner that should work on the pi: https://github.com/Polyomino/burst-rminer
I use it with xudroids mining 32TB each over usb3

@polyomino What is the read time?

[polyomino]

It takes me 8 min to read everything.

sorry if i missed it, but on pi2+ i can run windows or xubuntu right? If windows is xplotter and jminer working. thx

hey im new to this just to be clear, all of this is being run on raspbian, right

@polyomino How much TB are you reading?

I used the CreepMiner from Creepsky45. I have started mining using RPI3 (20 to 40 mb/s) on a 3 TB HDD.

To ensure the hard-drive has enough power to run, I use a powered USB hub to connect the HDD.
I have also tried to mine on the RPI Zero V3. It resulted in very bad read speeds 0.5 mb/s.

Setup on RPI 3 took about 45 minutes to an hour.
Setup on the PI zero takes more than 4 hours, beware! haha

Cheers!

i am trying out the raspberry pi creepminer, im most of the wat thought set up and when it says use make to compile, im assumming type this in the terminal it says, make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.
pls help

You would be better off with a nuc or a netbook with atom processor net book would be around 15watts far less than a full desktop a nuc is similar but up to I think the most powerful nuc is around 150w but only when being pushed both the nuc and netbook should draw far less. Not going to get them to rpi levels but rather than minutes per drive it will be seconds...

@tminer0315 In the terminal ensure you navigate to the creepMaster directory (the one you downloaded and unzipped).

In Step 3, all you have to type is "make" and press enter. You need not specifically mention the makefile when using "make" command. Basically, a "make" command in linux terminal automatically looks for a makefile in the current directory. As you see, in the creepMaster directory, there is a makefile from before (The same makefile, which you edited in Step 2).

Once the "make" command runs, the folders and files in the "bin" folder will be updated.

@Wallet1 i realized this a little after i posted but thanks, i will probably have more questions soon.

Shameless cross-post but I only noticed this thread existed after I created another one. I've just created a new cross-platform miner that I intended to use on my Pi. Performance isn't fantastic as it's a PI and I definitely think the Nuc is a better option but it does work so if anybody wants to take a look check out the thread at https://forums.burst-team.us/topic/6627/rpi-arm-cross-platform-architecture-miner-anybody-interested
