Re: [Mining OS] SimpleMining.net - Easy to use GPU MINING Operating System
boot up with less than 6 x GPUs and do the BIOS settings..
... after than insert the next 6 x GPUs
Bootup with PCI-16x slot
Goto BIOS
Disable Sound
Power ON after power loss
On board graphics - Enabled, select IGFX
Mining Mode - Above 6G
Save reboot
plugin to onboard graphics
*** set all PCI speed to "Gen 2" if that helps
Thanks for the reply! Unfortunately this didn't help. We're still getting scrolling errors that say:
PCIe Bus Error: Severity=Corrected, type=Physical Layer, id=00db(Receiver ID)
device [8086:aZee] error status/mask=00000001/00002000
Any ideas?
Disable aspm via bios and if that doesn't help smos dev must add some kernel boot options to /etc/default/grub
... after than insert the next 6 x GPUs
I have a tb250-btc pro motherboard that supports 12 cards and 12 1060s hooked up, but whenever I boot up I get scrolling PCIe Bus errors. The bios is set to mining mode - above 6g and SMOS supports 15 cards so theoretically there shouldn't be an issue. I know one guy here got the same board up and running with 12, but I can't seem to get over 6 without these issues. I've talked to the dev and he's working on it, but I want to ask if anyone has had and overcome this issue in the meantime.

I have spend 6 hours of test with this mobo and 6 cards, tried both images - normal RX and z170image. None of the bios settings help to boot up with more than 1 gpu. I tried every possible combination and it's not booting. Problem is the kernel seems to not work fine with this Biostar, this guy here have the same observation - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_VoWV9ENa0&feature=youtu.be so it's not just two of us. Can we have a version for this MB, please ?
reading your post again and I assume you are using the NVIDIA smOS image.... looks like you are not
I have the same board and all 12 x RX470s are working just fine
Since you have GTX-1060 you need this image, NOT the RX ones

setup your BIOS with 1 or 2 cards first and enable the Above 6G..., reboot and put in the rest of your cards, reboot ... you should be mining with all 12 cards
