Hello,
I'm running cgminer 4.9.0 on a raspberry pi, and I've been having problems. Seems that the raspberry pi basically crashes after an hour or 2hours. I thought it was some memory issue or being overheating somehow, so I tried to have it rebooted every hour (but apparently is not working... I assume it's because it crashes before restarting).
I read online somewhere that there could be a memory issue, but my logs didn't show anything relevant (sorry, I have no fancy logs to show off). I thought it was just my raspberry pi not having enough memory, so Today I actually received a new one, the Raspberry Pi 2 Quad Core... 1GB ram... and I did my setup as follows:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install libusb-1.0-0-dev libusb-1.0-0 libcurl4-openssl-dev libncurses5-dev libudev-dev -y
wget http://ck.kolivas.org/apps/cgminer/4.9/cgminer-4.9.0.tar.bz2
tar xvf cgminer-4.9.0.tar.bz2
cd cgminer-4.9.0/
./configure --enable-icarus
sudo make && sudo make install
cgminer --icarus-options 115200:1:1 -o stratum+tcp://useast.blackcoinpool.com:2222 -u me -p y
On my original setup I had cgminer 4.9.1, but seems that the result is the same...
And I added cgminer toetc/rc.local so it starts on every startup (as I was having it so many times I decided to automatize that), and then I tried to restart it every hour by adding '0 0 * * *sbin/shutdown -r 5+' at the end of the file when you use `crontab -e`.
I have no idea what can be causing it to crash/freeze, let me know any flags that I can use for better logs or maybe this version is not stable?
PS: I'm using the Rockminer New R-Box (2 of them)
PS2: It seems I have the same issue as this guy

Thank you
