I appreciate the assist, but I attempted all of this earlier. These are great instructions on most of the cloud servers, but the IBM Power 8 seems to be a different beast. I really appreciated sologap's help today with setting it up for solo mining, but I have yet to get it working on the pool with the available settings.
The cloud mining guide is here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=822498.msg9384957#msg9384957I'm guessing that the IBM Power 8 instances have a slightly different architecture that is incompatible with the current rev2 capminer for noncepool then ? Perhaps you could post the errors that your getting or I'll try to test it over the weekend. TBH I'm mining Slimcoin at RunAbove at present and mining Gapcoin at both DO and VULTR.
Solo mining works at RunAbove, so it will just be a matter of reproducing the 'error' with rev2 capminer and making it compatible with the P8 chip set.
When using the cloud mining guide I get "-su: gapminer-noncepool/64/gapminer: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error". It does this for both the solo mining setup guide and the pool mining guide. The wallet had to be recompiled within the instance in order to function at all.
