How do I:

a) install the very latest version of phoenix miner to my persistent linuxcoin usb flash drive?

b) install (and switch between) sdk 2.1 (since it is 2.4 by default and poclbm favors 2.1) to my persistent linuxcoin usb flash drive?

c) pop open all 6 of my poclbm or phoenix command line miners on persistent linuxcoin startup? It is such a pain to open up 6 miners using the start_mining script...

Please leave your Bitcoin address in your answer post.

Never used linuxcoin, so here's some generic instructions -

a) wget http://svn3.xp-dev.com/svn/phoenix-miner/files/phoenix-1.48.zip
b) Download the SDK, extract to /opt/

Export the following for 2.4 -

AMDAPPSDKROOT=/opt/AMD-APP-SDK-v2.4-lnx32
AMDAPPSDKSAMPLESROOT=/opt/AMD-APP-SDK-v2.4-lnx32
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/AMD-APP-SDK-v2.4-lnx32/lib/x86:

sudo ldconfig

There are similar settings for 2.1 - replace AMD with ATI and point to the correct path.

c)

for i in {1..5}
do
start_miner.sh $i
done

Looks pretty good... so phoenix does not require any sort of "install" process? Just download and run?

Can you show me answer b) for sdk 2.1??? That is what I am after because apparantly poclbm is better at reconnecting to downed pools than phoenix.

Thanks!
