steveme,

Thanks for writing the Guide! It has all the necessary info, and I was able to set up at least a couple of boards following it. The bounty of 20BTC is sent to the address you provided.

Just for reference, Quick-start Guide is located at: http://btc.steveme.mailforce.net/CM1%20quickstart%20guide.html

I wonder if Enterpoint is interested in adding this Guide to their documentation package - it seems a good place to start for new CM1 users.

bounty received - thanks!

the guide is now on the bitcoin wiki at https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/CM1Quickstart

Some possible additions?:
- Emptying the chips takes approx. 2,5 minutes/chip (10 minutes in total)
- Flashing the bitstream takes approx. 8 minutes/chip (32 minutes in total)
- Make a note somewhere of the modprobe you need to do if you use Linux?
- The batch you create for cgminer can be created for bfgminer as well
- Maybe a note somewhere that the controller software can only be flashed from Windows?
- Maybe expand the guide to also include bfgminer & cgminer when running under Linux?
