First of all, it's great SMOS Linux 2.0 is absolutely free with no fee from developer, miner program fees may apply.

Have used nvOC and SimpleMining before and I've just moved my rigs from SimpleMining to SMOS Linux 2.0 for a test.
- 30x gtx 1060 turbo 3GB
- 3x gtx 1070 8GB
- 24x rx 570 8GB

As it's still early 2.0 version there were a couple of small bugs which developer fixed really fast, in matter of hours from time of reporting.

Mining works very good on all GPUs, no crashes at all for now. We had issues with one 1070 GPU crashing every couple of hours on SimpleMining, hasn't happen on SMOS Linux yet.

Also we have been getting bigger hashrate for about 3-5% with lower settings on SMOS Linux 2.0 although with a different miner called DSTM.

Haven't tested ETH mining for now, but will write back with results. For now it looks good. DSTM miner is used on SMOS Linux 2.0 for equihash and it seems it has a no dev fee where ewbf-0.3.4b which is used on SimpleMining has been taking up to 10% of total shares as some users report.

I'll report more things as the mining goes.

Keep up the good work.
