The forum is back and I need my news fix. Did Form get the board assembled and hashing? Have you received the batch 1 chips yet? Did you get notice about delivery of batch 2? I was considering bombarding you guys with a bunch of questions but I'll leave it at that...
Just notice that forum is back...
form got his board but only 1 chip was working. He did a lot of test and figure out that we have crappy samples. So it is highly unlikely we had a problem with soldering in the first place. form had 9 chips from one batch of samples and the rest of the chips from other. It looks like all chips from that second batch are dead...
He tested that by taking board apart and put it back together knowing where are good chips. And good chips did work again. The rest did not. So we can say with hi possibility samples we have are dead...
Now we can't show you 16 chip working board but we can show you 8 chips board.
Luke-Jr has his board and form and him are programming it right now. It is hard to say what is the problem at the moment. He is using difrent hardware and software so it might be problem with that.
Batch 1. No news from BFL. But it should be any day now... If I don't see mail tomorrow I will asked BFL...
No notice of batch 2...
