As there is no firmware available yet from bitmain I ask it over here:
If one that received an A3 already can make a copy of the filesystem (tar gz it and SCP) and can upload it to mega and share the link (PM me) I would be really thankful and give a 0.5 LTC or 0.1 DASH reward to the first one sharing this.


I can give it a shot, when I receive my unit from Fedex in Thursday (most likely).  Smiley
I hope to have the firmware earlier then that, but I will let it know in this topic. Thanks  Cool

How do you extract it? I have mine up and running.

You need to have some linux knowledge: login with ssh as root/admin to your miner:

This guide helps you to make a copy:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem/TAR

later you need to scp the tar / gz file to your windows pc. winscp can do that for example.
Don't worry to mess something up on your miner as the filesystem is loaded in RAM. So a reboot and you're back to the original state...
