Seems Linuxcoin tested me instead of me testing Linuxcoin. Want to try new version soon.

lol Yes I would wait because when I initially created the first release I had an idea in my head that every miner would be familiar with linux and wasn't really designing this for the average Joe. But as the feedback started to come in I've realized that this OS could be so much more. So "MK2" has been designed with the average user in mind. I'm looking to secure a little web space and setup a repo for this distro so I can keep it lightweight and people can install what they like when they need to.

Also I'm sort of happy that most ATI hardware is supported now and I wanted to get ATI out of the way before starting anything else because 99% of the mining population use ATI cards as they suit this type of math a lot better than Nvidia.

Nvidia cards will be supported in the near future but got to make some decisions on how this is all going to work and I'm working alone on this ATM so might be a little while before I make a start on that.

What you have to remember is that this is in a very early stage so it was never going to be 100% yet but you can see the potential of this OS and I think it could play a minor part in growing the bitcoin community, getting people on board and making it even easier and more secure to use bitcoin.

It recognized my 2 6990 cards and all 4 GPUs. I didn't have to change anything except for untaring the license file. I'm still trying to get persistence to work, and then I would ditch all of my hard disks that I had been using.

I'm still working on this issue. Sorry been trying to get a base together and settle on a Windows Environment for LinuxCoin. I promise this will work in the next version.

I would love to see PXE support on this. I downloaded .1a and couldn't get it working (UNetBootin kept saying the kernel image was missing or corrupt) but I'll try .1b now. Hoping this ends up being great, seems to have so much potential.

Does this support multiple GPUs out of the box, or will I need to do some CLI config? I'm not ignorant when it comes to Linux in general but I am currently ignorant about mining with Linux, so patience is appreciated. Wink

Thanks for your efforts!

Wow great stuff dude Shocked

Can it booted from PXE?
Because I think it would be great, so all we need is just setup one master server that holds entire worker nodes. It would be easier to scale up this cluster easily. Wink

Just as for real case, someone made custom distro for Folding@home and have it booted with PXE --> http://reilly.homeip.net/folding/diskless.html

Yes this ISO can easily be added to a PXE server Cheesy

Thanks for all the feedback people. Your all helping me make LinuxCoin uber Cheesy
