Hi all, I have a PI 4 running Raspios Lite with 10 x NewPac and 1 x r606.
My 4 x Moonlander 2 are currently on a separate hub on a PI 3b+.

I would really like to combine them all on the PI4 but when I start 'bfgminer' I get 'FutureBit Write error: Input/output error'.
The NewPac and r606 running 'cgminer' keep mining without error.

Shutting down cgminer and then executing bfgminer has the moonlander 2 hub mining perfect till I execute cgminer in another screen.

Anyone know how to run both at the same time without conflict?

You have to point cgminer and bfgminer to the miners using --usb and -S. I would also suggest starting the Gekkoscience stuff first.

Thanks for the reply, do you have a sample of what the -S should look like in linux?
Before coming here I read this thread in regards to my aforementioned question. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5187949.0
jstefanop gives an example of -S \\.\COM1 -S \\.\COM2 -S \\.\COM3 however that thread refers to a windows .bat file not a linux .sh.

Using the lsusb command I retrieved usb addresses as follows.

I replaced -S MLD:all with -S MLD:\\.\COM84 -S MLD:\\.\COM83 -S MLD:\\.\COM82 -S MLD:\\.\COM81 and got 'no devices found'; with and without cgminer running.
cgminer works fine using the following added to its start script --usb :26 --usb :24 --usb :21 --usb :22 --usb :18 --usb :83 --usb :81 --usb :4 --usb :70 --usb :69 --usb :67 --usb :68 --usb :66 (must have a space between --usb : or it will generate an error)

Thanks in advance anyone.
