I’m trying to load zcash on a Raspberry Pi 3. The Debian install fails at the update and zcash install with the error:
“Failed to fetch https://apt.z.cash/dists/Jessie/Release Unable to find expected entry ‘main/binary-armhf/Packages’ in Release file (wrong sources.list entry or malformed file)”
Does it not load on the Pi or is there a different problem?
Don’t think it was compiled for ARM
I dont believe you can mine on RPi 3. Equihash algorithm relies heavily on RAM.
Do we know if Zcashd will ever be compiled for ARM processors?
I’m only entering the install command: sudo apt-get install zcash
Is there a way to correct the capitalization?
OK Thanks. So I asume that I am compiling it on the Raspberry (arm) system. As per the wiki I run:
sudo apt-get install
build-essential pkg-config libc6-dev m4 g+±multilib
autoconf libtool ncurses-dev unzip git python
zlib1g-dev wget bsdmainutils automake
and I get the following:
Reading package lists…Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information…Done
Note, selecting "libncurses5.dev’ instead of "curses-dev’
E: Unable to locate package g+±multilib
E; Couldn’t find any package by regex ‘g+±multilib’
There was also a post from months ago about someone doing some preliminary Equihash testing on their ARM based phone.
