Does anyone have a guide to getting the R-Box running off a Raspberry Pi? Cheers!
It will get messy due to the zavig requirement, will be possible though.
Um no.

Firstly, it's zadig, and secondly it's a windows program to switch USB devices to use the WinUSB driver - among other things.
(yeah I know because: I was the one who actually wrote the original USB driver code in cgminer and then worked out how to get it to work on windows ... after changing the code ... and using zadig)
That info is of course all in the cgminer README ... which many people don't bother to read.
"SETTING UP USB DEVICES"

The RPi - on the other hand - it is not a windows device ... and as the README says ...
"On linux, the direct USB support requires no drivers at all. However ..."

Read the rest to learn about it ...
