Found the original dev, but no response.

If anyone is interested in testing PIckaxe with my modifications, I'd be very interested in feedback?!?

To test:
--Install the latest raspbian (raspbian.org) to the SDCard using WinImage32, or dd.  Guides to do this all over (google is your friend).
--Boot the rPi, and log in (user: pi, password: raspbian). 
--(optional) Update Raspbian to latest:  'sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade'
--(optional) Configurate time-zone and expand to use entire SDCard:  'sudo raspi-config'  (then set the timezone, then choose option to Expand Filesystem.
--Load PIckaxe:  'cd && git clone https://github.com/sephtin/PIckaxe -b NoMoreSudoers'
--Install PIckaxe:  'cd PIckaxe && sudo setup.sh'

That should do it.  Let me know if it doesn't work for any reason... Tongue

In addition to what original PIckaxe provides, my modifications add:
--Fixed setup to correct host resolution errors
--Additional Setup fixes.
--Added columns to status for Total Shares, Rejected (and %Rejected), and HWErrors (and %HWErrors).
--Limited www-data's ability to sudo to only a couple executables.
--Made all config go into a single file.
--Started prepping for adding CGMiner (next version)...

Questions or anything, post or PM.
