Moved more Mining stuff from BTT - Linux questions about VPS

What is the best miner for a Linux 20GB vps?
I tried this guide by user dcct https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=731923.msg8879760#msg8879760

But when i enter ./plot -k publickey -d /path/
It returns only the usage examples Usage: ./plot -k KEY [-d DIRECTORY] [-s STARTNONCE] [-n NONCES] [-m STAGGERSIZE] [-t THREADS]
The plots is not created.

You need to set start nonce, nonces, stagger size, and threads ;P. None of them are actually optional :/

Ok, i have set all parameters, but do not work, i do not need the wallet running in the machine, right?
./plot -k f76bb1d44c1b564c61fd03969cefb11afd1d880b27bb840bf28147111ea76b73 -d /root/plotdir -s 10000 -n 23G -m 1G -t 2

It's more tricky...  -KEY is your Burst-Numeric-Address. I give you an example: startnonce at 0, around 200 GB of diskspace,  1 GB of memory and 2 threads:

./plot -k 123456789012345 -d /root/plotdir/ -s 0 -n 800000 -m 4096 -t 2

I have configured and looks like working

Using burst.poolto.be port 8124
5 MB read/21 GB total/no deadline
New block 198206, basetarget 5562696
5 MB read/21 GB total/no deadline

Walet reported no deadline.
Could not get mining info from Node. Will retry..

I do not optimize the plot, no enough space, that have some importance?
How long to appear on pooltobe miners list?

Thanks!

Optimizing is not necessary for you now...because you have a rather small plot.

You will appear there sooner or later but I recommend you to plot more space to get a steady stream of Burst. 200 GB should be a good start.
