Default login is root and password 1234
After successful login you must to enter new root password
Next need to choose what default shell will be BASH or ZSH (i prefer bash)
After shell is checked need to create new user, its optional but i created.
After user created run command:
apt update
Then
apt upgrade
and your OS will install all updates of your packets
In Duino coin documentation written that i need to install python and python packets to run minerrun command:apt install python3 python3-pip git python3-pil python3-pil.imagetk -y
Next clone miner repository
run command:
git clone https://github.com/revoxhere/duino-coin
also from documentation neet to install all requirements from requirements.txt
run command:
cd duimo-coinpython3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt
i have problems with installing cryptography packet, but all other packets installed
i stopped installing requirements
and try to run miner
python3 PC_Miner.py
get error that i need to install python packet requests
run command:
pip install requests
after requests installer miner runs
first you need to enter Duino coin wallet username
next choose difficulty i check Low difficulty because its for Raspberry Pi, Orange pi is Raspberry Pi clone
entered name for rig, its also optional
and entered 1 for developer donation
Miner started mining,
Mining performance is 180 kH/s. I think is good for SBC that cost 10 Eur on Aliexpress.
This post made just for interest, can Orange Pi Zeno pine and what performance is.
Maybe some days i check performance on another devices.
