EBAZ4205 Bitcoin miner board - linux investigations (circa 2024)
I got these boards back in January 2021, and never really did much as far as investigating
the linux system on them. But in 2024 I got interested. I began by pulling a fresh "new"
(new to me anyway) board out, resoldering the power supply diode, connecting a USB to
serial dongle to it and then firing it up using a 12 volt (3.2 amp) power supply harvested
from an old Nintendo gamecube.
It boots right up, but with a password set (as we expected).
Feedback? Questions?
Drop me a line!
