HowTo: Butterfly Labs BitForce 25/30 GH/s Miner in Fedora 19

So, I got my, apparently dissipated, bitcoin mining rig.

I found out it's really easy to setup in Fedora; even with SELinux and all. Here's a straightforward howto:

# Get BFGMiner
git clone git@github.com:luke-jr/bfgminer.git
cd bfgminer

# install deps
su -c 'yum install -y uthash jansson jansson-devel libevent-devel ncurses-devel'

# build it
./autogen.sh
./configure --enable-bfsb --enable-scrypt
make

# run it
bfgminer -o stratum+tcp://stratum.mining.eligius.st:3334 -O <your bitcoin address>

Feel free to comment and add more notes to the HowTo.

Happy mining, dudes!
