Thank You. I have looked through that and do not understand what is next. The only linux mention seems to be cloning to the ssd. We bought it with ethOS . We are confused. What is next from /home/ethos #
We have overcome some physical obstacles (location, power, internet connection) and have reached a point we can not seem to get past . I have searched and questioned where I could and was given your address through the etherium forum.
Copy http://ethosdistro.com/pool.txt and host it yourself on a remote server, vps, or shared hosting account that you control. If you do not have a remote server, you can get one at Digital Ocean (the cheapest option will be fine, follow this link to get 2 months free).
Make changes to your remotely hosted config, and reboot your rig to have them take effect. After you set up your remote config, you can manage all your rigs via your remote config file, even remotely reboot them.
There's a configuration file you (we?) need to edit to set the pool address, account address, etc. you (we?) need to start mining to the pool. I'm sure that the procedure is documented on the ethOS site, FAQ, or something. You can also search the forum. Others before you (we?) have already been where you (we?) are.
here it is - Unfortunately to a linux neophyte, ssh into your rig is very confusing.
"It is highly recommended that you use a remote config. However, if you only have one rig, you can turn on single-rig mode.
ssh into your rig. (that's where I was!) (I just couldn't see it) Make the file /home/ethos/remote.conf completely blank: echo -n "" > /home/ethos/remote.conf Make changes to your local config, and reboot your rig to have them take effect: nano /home/ethos/local.conf"
ok. to escape nano and save your info ^x (control x) y(es) to confirm and return
@hvalentino that's the general idea of ethOS, I think. You have to be comfortable editing a few configuration files, and then it should _just work_. There's no GUI configuration, so don't expect that.
Then again, installing Windows 10 LTSB N, running windows toolkit for auto-kms, downloading and running ethminer (AMD drivers and everything are installed automatically) is pretty damn plug-and-play too.
Basically, LTSB won't force updates on you, allows you to disable telemetry, and doesn't include crap like edge browser. It's like a faster pretty'd up Windows 7.

We are at
[email protected] 10.0.014/home/ethos #
I would like to mine from us2.ethermine.org:4444
to my polo address 0x0...
most often I get
command not found
TIA
I have spotted some of your other posts. I am learning, but the curve seems very steep. Well actually right now it feels like a wall

Get the link to your remote config (example: http://yourdomain.com/path/to/your/config.txt ).
Import your remote config: echo -n "http://yourdomain.com/path/to/your/config.txt" > /home/ethos/remote.conf
Make changes to your remotely hosted config, and reboot your rig to have them take effect.
After you set up your remote config, you can manage all your rigs via your remote config file, even remotely reboot them.
nano /home/ethos/local.conf
nano is the editor!

from /ethos/home # gethelp
produces's a very beautiful file!

What to learn next?
Dale Chapman has been awesome!
(hit enter)
nano /home/ethos/local.conf
(nano is the editor)
(change the proxywallet address to your correct address, and stratumpool1 and 2 to ie)
0x0................................................
proxypool1 us2.ethermine.org:4444
proxypool2 us1.ethermine.org:4444
(once done editing hit) ctrl + x
y (to save)
and then enter to confirm.
(once back at the command line, you can either reboot the machine )
r
hit enter
or type
restart-proxy
password: (default is live)
and the miner will switch to your pool.
Good luck!
Thank You Dale Chapman!
