Two Questions:

Q: Have you got the CC payment system ironed out yet?

Q: Someone was wondering how to restart the Pi in case it freezes. I bought this little guy:

I think I paid $140 for it, and it works great for my LTC miners. After configuring it, I just hook up the normally open pins on each relay to the reset pins on each miner's motherboard. If a miner isn't responding, I go to the dynamic DNS hostname I set up, it's port forwarded on my router, and pow, I've got a web based gui with buttons to restart my miners. Grin

Now, I won't be in a situation again where I go on a two-week vacation and one of the miners locks up on day two. Angry

So, If I connected one of these relays (normally closed) in series to the power supply of the Rpi, will it restart the Rpi and continue to mine? It is my understanding that the Rpi does not have restart pins like a motherboard does.

^ That or you could simply enable the hardware watchdog on the Rpi... : http://pi.gadgetoid.com/post/001-who-watches-the-watcher

The watchdog is on the BCM2708 not in the kernel space.
