M.A.T / Alchemist Firmware issue solution (c)jstefanop

The 1.5.0 isnt an firmware. That is the python GUI.

You need two works get ready. Prepare the Controller (its an modified raspberry) and prepare the Hashboards. For controller you find all on the site. The firmware upgrade for the Hashboards is not for free. I have too many respect for jstefanos work, that i dont give it to somebody away. I contacted jstefano few weeks ago and he answered me. Try again, its not expensive.

Hi fugju,

Thanks for replying.
i have all hardware and software ready, but not the firmware, i got a response from jstefanop and he offered me the firmware for a donation.
No problem so far, but what he asks is not at all cheap.
Especially with current litecoin prizes....
S, i have no more bitcoin or litecoin in hands (sold all a long time ago), that's why i have to mine right now to get some coins.

For updates or new rpi controller but I see nothing for reset/recovery the original controller.
Or have you any hint for broken full access (original controller) ? Like card slot or 3-4 pins (on the board)? Thanks!

EDIT: File /etc/rc.local is possible for full access with ssh user without root access. It was with chmod 777 in my device.

Sure but he is very busy and answers very short.

Flashfile is not the same like python miningsoftware
Absolutely different things.
