Okay. I decided to give this a try as it seemed like a better solution than running multiple instances of bf/c -gminer on my r-pi.

Have my old one but can't run them both at the same time so if we need configuration information, it may take a bit:

Original was just a regular r-pi running standard linux build and bfgminer starting with cron job (@reboot /usr/bin/screen -dmS bfg /home/pi/bfgminer/bfgminer --scrypt --url stratum+tcp://{{your_stratum_address}} --user {{your_username}} --pass {{your_password}} --zeus-cc 128 --zeus-clk 240 -S zeus:all). Worked great. Ran without any issues for months.

Wanted to add my Rockminer R-Box to the mix and, as I mentioned, didn't want to spawn another instance so thought I'd give minera a try.

Grabbed the pi image and booted up fine. Attempted (multiple different options/configs) to get it to run and continues to fail with mixed results. Using bfgminer seems to be the best but I can't get it to consistently recognize the zeus. I also don't know how to get it to do scrypt with the zeus and sha256 for the R-Box.

Don't want to put too much here as there may be a simple solution someone can point me to. I'll admit, I did NOT read all 133 pages of the thread - sorry - and searching didn't result in too much help either.

Hope someone can give me a good nudge to at least get the zeus's running.
