How to continue with solo mining on same machine after OS reinstall?
i'm getting this error: failed to load wallet: failed to read file "xeon1.bin"

So you backed up your wallet .bin and .bin.keys files, copied them to the new install, and then got this error?

Yeah, but I changed OS. It looks like Windows and Linux wallets files aren't compatible.

Wow, that's huge. Can anyone else test and confirm?

BTW, How's it going with performance under Windows/Linux? On same machine (Xeon E3-1245 v3) I got two totaly different numbers: 7.5 in Windows 7 and 14.5 in Lubuntu. But so far Linux version is giving me same amount of blocks as Windows one.

Isn't that number in Lunux just an error or something like that?

Sounds like a good question for the CryptoNote forums but 14.5 H/s sounds high for a 4-core CPU.

Perhaps more important that a GUI is source code that compiles on OSX...

GUI is more important I'd say. OSX is uncommon, particularly for mining machines. On the other hand, command line presents a large psychological barrier for many even when simple step-by-step instructions are given. But, yes, there needs to be an OSX binary for CryptoNote soon. The BCN website said they'd be coming but who knows what their time frame is? I hope someone on this forum is working on it.
