I finally got public pool configured on my Pi 5 too. You can customise the Pironman case and set the fan speed etc, not very noisy at all.

What I have found though is that public pool gives me more rejected shares than ckpool...

Thanks CK.

I did come across that readme file and tried my best to read it. It's far too hard for me to follow as I have zero experience with coding/linux. This whole set up is purely my personal interest and my way of contributing to bitcoin's decentralisation. My node has been up and running for a week now, which I'm really stocked about. would be nice If I could set up my own mining pool on it too. I will keep trying...

Thanks for the input guys. This whole thing is purely a personal interest - being able to run my own node and my own mining pool, and contributing to bitcoin's decentralisation.

I've got bitcoin core up and running on the pi 5 fully synced. Its' been running for a week now I see no problem with it.

The problem is, I have zero experience with coding/linux, the readme file on https://bitbucket.org/ckolivas/ckpool/src/master/ is far too hard for me to follow. I tried many tutorials on Google(chatgpt as well), none of them worked for me. I guess I will just have to mine through something like sole.ckpool

It's a bit of a shame, but hey, it's beyond my capabilities. I will keep the node running for as long as possible, it's a cool little feature on my stand:

Hey guys, here is my current set up:

 - Raspberry pi 5 8gb with a 2tb nvme
 - OS: Pi OS full desktop version
 - Bitcoin Core fully synced
 - A gamma 601 that is solo/lottery mining through ckpool

What I would like to do is to set up a solo mining pool on the Pi OS, so I can mine directly to my own node. I've tried setting up ckpool with no success, I couldn't find a working tutorial on Google. I read somewhere that p2pool.in can work with Pi OS, but unsure how legit it is...

Any suggestions or help would be much appreciated.

p.s. I know umbrelOS is the easy way out, since they have bitcoin core and public pool in their app store. I do want to learn how to do this on Pi OS though.

Hey guys, can someone show me a tutorial on how to set up a solo ckpool on Pi OS? Here is my set up:

 - Raspberry Pi 5 8GB with a 2TB nvme
 - The latest Pi OS installed on the nvme
 - Bitcoin core installed via snap store and fully synced
 - A bitaxe currently solo mining through ckpool

I would like to mine directly to my own node. I understand I have to set up a solo ckpool in Pi OS for that to happen. I haven't been able to find a working tutorial on Google.... any help would be much appreciated.

p.s. I know umbrelOS is an easy option since they have bitcoin core and public pool in their app store. I would really like to learn how to do it on Pi OS and ckpool.
