I tested this a lot.

First, you need a VPN connection to Hongkong based server using OpenVPN. Otherwise most of the time you will get a memory error on startup, as reported by many above.

Second, the miner is not optimized as reported by others. And it needs a strong CPU. With 7700k and 6x1080ti the max I could manage is 1400h/s. At this rate its not worthwhile over other options.

Third, probably the best OS to try this is with HiveOS, it has GUI interface accessible via VNC, making it much more easier to use than Putty on Windows.

Fourth, it does not swap space. A default HiveOS setup on 64GB stick should work.

Hope this helps anyone wanting to stick it to the Bitmain ASICs;)

im having trouble with even trying to get it runing, can you please point me in the right dirrection?

On HiveOS, this is what i did so far
- miner stop (stop the default miner)
- /hive/btm miner (that is the name of the folder of the miner)
- ./run.sh (and i get the below message)
"Driver = 390 , CARD COUNT=7 , WK=1x3"

- type in miner on another terminal and this is what it shows
2018/05/19 21:31:44 fserver : true
2018/05/19 21:31:51 unknown error%!(EXTRS srting=xxx)

i have not change anything in the folder not even the address or mining pool yet. i assume the miner will just mind to the default address settings.
once its mining i will change the address.

I believe you need to have VPN connection to a server based in Hong Kong. Install openvpn and try that.
