I don't do the best job of tracking every coin, and I haven't mined Skein myself. 

If it uses an algorithm supported by ccminer then you should be able to mine it with nvOC.  It most likely has a specific fork which performs better.  If you find me the link to the clients repo and tell me what pool you want to / do use to mine skein, then I can add the client and modify oneBash for the next version.

In windows I use the alexis78 version from nemo's miner and I mine at Z-pool

My batfile looks like this :
Code:
ccminerAlexis78.exe -r 0 -a skein -o stratum+tcp://skein.mine.zpool.ca:4933 -u BTC ADDDRESS -p c=BTC


https://github.com/alexis78/ccminer

Skein is paying really well atm...$23/1080ti/day


that 1080ti beats a S9 any day

I haven't had time to play much with it yet, will report later.

- I added DGB to onebash (ccminer -a skein). I don't know if the OC works (fan speed is not fixed even if defined), if need to launch instances, or if SPccminer is slow, I get a higher hashrate with this ccminer version for now (https://github.com/tpruvot/ccminer).
Could you add this miner or the fastest skein version (alexis maybe)? And the DGB coin option.
You might want to look into skein for your Nv  Wink

- You might want to launch onebash inside a screen to monitor it remotely.
(https://www.gnu.org/software/screen/manual/screen.html)
and a ssh server (disabled by default)

- Maybe Enable automatic security updates

- I got a module error trying to upgrade (kernel)
- I will try to put it on SSD as upgrading is slow

@bentcrypto
Did you get the best results for skein with Alexis?
Do you mine DGB directly with it?


I updated the newest oneBash link on the OP.  It now supports both ETHERMINEdotORG for ETC as well as ETH and I added a DGB coin selection.

I used your pool / options  bentcrypto:  for a DGB address you are actually using a BTC address with zpool.

peonv I tested both the SP and TP forks with DGB and I agree the TP is faster so it is what I set oneBash to use.

I didn't enable updates as they will slow down mining, I have and plan to continute to update nvOC frequently.  I download and install updates for each version.  The last image I made already has:

disabled password lockout
thread number selection option for cpuminer-opt
added screen and openssh-server

I will add the alexis fork to the next version (which will be soon)

In regards to using vanilla methods to update the system; they may not work due to changes I have made.  nvOC is a full install, but has system files for all common chipsets.
