HI,

I know this has been answered but i was unable to find any info.

https://github.com/jstefanop/Apollo-Miner-Binaries

can i use apollo 2 miner binaries OS image file on raspberry pi 5 and link my own miners ie nano 3?

You cant use the images on the Raspberry Pi as it's designed for our custom ARM controllers. The OS itself can be installed on any linux system, but requires some modifications on the system.

it expects an nvme drive at /dev/nvme0n1p1, and the Bitcoin database folder at /media/nvme/Bitcoin

You could probably symlink both of these to wherever they exist on your system and it would probably work on any ARM system

Thanks for the reply. Can you list the steps and will the OS workj on x86 processor. I have a mini pc with 1tb HDD  windows 11(not ssd).  I will have to format it and upload the Os via pendrive.
