Gernal info

The startup service for the miner is found at:
https://github.com/mcmickburns/iceriverminer_dump/blob/main/OS/KS3L/etc/rc0.d/K99bgserver.sh

OS

The OS dump is located in the OS folder.
The OS dump was taken from a KS3L that has not been updated to the lastest version.

Firmware

The firmware folder contains firmware from https://www.iceriver.io/firmware-download/

The firmware is encrypted with the jm binary located https://github.com/mcmickburns/iceriverminer_dump/blob/main/OS/KS3L/var/volatile/jm

In the firmware folder is each version of the iceriver firmware for each model. There is a original verison plus the decrypted and extracted versions.

A version of the KS3M miner has been placed added too:
https://github.com/mcmickburns/iceriverminer_dump/tree/main/firmware/KS3M/PRE-MODELLOCK-2023-09-16

Changing miner versions

DAMAGE TO HARDWARE WARNING.

To change the version of the miner you can change out the bgz files used in /var/update
You'll want to keep the original version around incase you want to switch back.
Creating a sub folder in /var/update is recommended bak for example
Then place the oringal .bgz files in the bak folder
Next upload the version of the bg.bgz and miner.bgz you'd like to use. The names don't matter as long as they end in bg.bgz and miner.bgz so the scripts pick them up. Once uploaded restart the asic and the new miners will be used.

If you want to switch back you can replace the uploaded .bgz with the originals and reboot.

Example: KS3M bg.bgz https://github.com/mcmickburns/iceriverminer_dump/blob/main/firmware/KS3M/PRE-MODELLOCK-2023-09-16/Recovery/order/reset/0808_ks3mbg.bgz
KS3M miner.bgz https://github.com/mcmickburns/iceriverminer_dump/blob/main/firmware/KS3M/PRE-MODELLOCK-2023-09-16/Recovery/order/reset/formal/0823_ks3mminer.bgz

Converting KS3L to KS3M

WARNING ONLY USE IF YOU HAVE A 2 FAN PSU. REPORTS ARE 3 FAN PSU's CAN'T HANDLE THE OC The conversion is done by swapping the miner/bgserver/reset.conf that are used when the miner starts.
The KS3M miner does a quick check to see what model the machine is set to.
By default miner defaults to a KS3L.
The reset.conf has a extra parameter:

[model]
model=ks3m

Once it finds the model has been set to KS3M it then applies the overclocks.

Files to backup:
reset.conf /var/order/conf/reset.conf
*bg.bgz /var/update/*bg.bgz
*miner.bgz /var/update/*miner.bgz

The best method is to make a sub folder in in /var/order/conf and /var/update called orig.
Then move the original files on the miner into the orig folder.

Once done you can download and replace the miner/bg/reset.conf with the ones listed below:
reset.conf: https://github.com/mcmickburns/iceriverminer_dump/blob/main/firmware/KS3M/PRE-MODELLOCK-2023-09-16/Recovery/order/conf/reset.conf
*bg.bgz: https://github.com/mcmickburns/iceriverminer_dump/blob/main/firmware/KS3M/PRE-MODELLOCK-2023-09-16/Recovery/order/reset/0808_ks3mbg.bgz
*miner.bgz: https://github.com/mcmickburns/iceriverminer_dump/blob/main/firmware/KS3M/PRE-MODELLOCK-2023-09-16/Recovery/order/reset/formal/0823_ks3mminer.bgz

The .bgz files belong in /var/update/ Reset.conf belongs in /var/order/conf/

Once the files have been replaced restart the miner.
You should see increased hashrate.
Note there is also increased power draw to 14a/3400W.
