I seem to have found something else, too. If I have more than 10 blades connected the GUI fails to display, says that the miner isn't running. But I can SSH into it and check the screen output from minerd to see that's not the case.
Anyone else running more than 10 devices on this distro?
I can confirm this. In fact if you try to run more than 10 blades many issues begin.
Most recently after I did a fresh image flash to an SD and turned up my raz for the first time to input pool info for mining I got a:
Warning!
I can't get the stats from your minerd. Please try to refresh the page or check your settings (minerd API must listen on 127.0.0.1:4028).
in the dashboard.
stats.json:
{"error":true}
Log shows:

many times over but other than mining for 10 whole blades (pool confirms this) still nothing. I also tried forcing api port to via parameter but still nothing.
Another more critical issue is that it will not mine on more than 10 G-Blades (roughly 20 blade boards) at a time. This is a super critical problem because it has forced me to run all blades on 3 raspberry pi's (plus no stats reading =/)
I actually only have 6 total units running so far, 12 individual boards. It seems to be behaving ok so far, just the missing stats. I haven't tried to figure out a manual API call yet to see if it's minera or cpuminer that's at fault.
