Before trusting the whattomine service to automatically launch your miners, test each one first by starting them manually, and then checking their status.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, to test the **miner-amd-eth-ethhash-ethermine** miner, run
|
||||
|
||||
1. ```systemctl start miner-amd-eth-ethhash-ethermine.service``` to start the service
|
||||
2. And then watch the output by running ```journalctl -u miner-amd-eth-ethhash-ethermine -f```
|
||||
3. When you're satisfied it's working correctly (_without errors and with a decent hashrate_), stop the miner again by running ```systemctl stop miner-amd-eth-ethhash-ethermine```, and move onto testing the next one.

The messages about "Could not find miner" can be ignored, they indicate that one of the preferred coins on whattomine does not have a miner defined.
