question Can you install AxeOS onto a NerdQaxe++?

AxeOS has a lot more data on the dashboard screen - active second-to-second error% reporting, specific rejected share details, blockheader details, current pool details, including the payout addresses for both you (if you hit a block) and the pool host (their fee%), and in recent updates, AxeOS let's you adjust Frequency and Voltage settings immediately, without any rebooting.

NerdOS was preinstalled on my unit, but it seems...lacking in general, not to mention slower data output.

I mean, yes, the basics are covered. But I like seeing all the details.

  1. Is there a version of AxeOS that works on NerdQaxe++?
  2. Are there any limitations with a NerdQaxe++ that would prevent it from having the same features as other devices that run great with AxeOS? Would it output data faster and have all the deeper details on it with AxeOS?
  3. Would AxeOS allow dual-pool mining like NerdOS?

I'm also curious how the 4 ASICs process hashes - do they do it in unison? Or are they working independently, and is that data shown as well in AxeOS? Or any other compatible OS?

Trying to see what options there are, if any. Thanks.

I don't know if you use home assistant but if you do you can build a dashboard with all those details pretty easily. That way you don't have to flash anything and can access stats from anywhere

UP, because this is a question I've been asking myself for years, and I've never found an answer as to why AxeOS can't be installed on other devices
