MoneroOS resurrection (repo.getmonero.org)
submitted 3 days ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

Two years ago I created MoneroOS, a plug and play live operating system that starts mining Monero on boot. Kind of like NiceHashOS but for Monero. You flash the OS to a USB drive, enter your mining settings, boot it up and start mining!

See the announcement thread from two years ago (https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/s/geHQmPdE8y)

Life got busy and I couldn't keep up with development. Now I’ve got more time, and I’d love to rebuild it properly and add all the things I wanted to include from the start.

I created a CCS proposal to rebuild MoneroOS.

If you want to see MoneroOS revived and improved please upvote the proposal and leave a positive comment to show support. Every bit of community feedback helps!

Thank you for being a part of this journey, your support means a lot!

Will it allow me to use any PC (including the ones in college library) turn into a mining machine? Like Tails, where I don't have to install the OS. Or will I have to install it on a storage?

It will work exactly like tails ; )

Will it be a tails spin? That might make a lot of sense
