BEAM CUDA Miner HiveOS Integration

A very good and proper custom miner integration video here:

The Wallet and Flightsheet are covered in above video, but here are my working examples. 

Installation URL
https://github.com/rigamp/HiveBeamCuda/releases/download/v1.0.0.8.2/beam_cuda-1.0.0.8.2.tar.gz

I used the wallet address rather than usual %WAL% variable. For some reason the variable wasn’t working for me. Might for you! 

General Stuff/Links

Below are general notes on setup and how I got it working “FAST” before the customer miner was worked out. Leaving all that because it might be helpful. Might have value for non-HiveOS Linux setups.

How I got it working “FAST” before Custom Miner

Downloaded the binary for BEAM from their site (www.beam.mw/downloads)and it runs via command line on HiveOS (and would on standard Linux distro’s).
