Installation

Install Braiins OS on S21 or S19 Series

Installation via Braiins Toolbox

The preferred method for installing Braiins OS is by using the Braiins Toolbox. This tool allows for remote batch installations on all the Antminer S21 and S19 series control boards: Zynq/Xilinx, Amlogic, BeagleBone Black, and Cvitek/CV1835.

SD Card Installation

Braiins OS can be also run on Antminers from the S19 series using Zynq(Xilinx) or BeagleBone Black control boards with a flashed SD card. You will require a Micro SD card with a minimum capacity of 128 MB. Please avoid using cards with capacities greater than 8 GB. The speed or class of the SD card is not relevant.

Note: Simple copy to SD card will not work. The SD card has to be flashed!

  • Insert the SD card into the miner. The miner can be powered-on while doing this.

  • After inserting the SD card, power-up or reboot the miner. The miner will automatically boot Braiins OS from the SD card.

Note: The internal memory is kept intact and Braiins OS does not alter it in any way. After the SD card is removed, the stock firmware will boot, with all the previous settings.

  • Enter the miner with a web browser (search its IP with AngryIP or Nmap)
