∟64-Bit "geth" for Private Ethereum Network

∟Run 64-bit "geth" with Miner Module

This section describes how to run the 'miner' module with 64-bit 'geth'.

Now we are ready to restart the Ethereum node on my private network with the 64-bit "geth" and turn on the 'miner' module. 

C:\>"\program files\geth\geth.exe" console --networkid 314 
   --datadir\herong\Ethereum\personal 2>> ether-personal.log

Welcome to the Geth JavaScript console!

instance: Geth/v1.8.1-stable-1e67410e/windows-amd64/go1.9.2
coinbase: 0x05d4e1a499775ce9d681abd50bda655c7b5ccb90
at block: 0 (Wed, 31 Dec 1969 19:00:00 EST)
 datadir: C:\herong\Ethereum\personal
 modules: admin:1.0 debug:1.0 eth:1.0 miner:1.0 net:1.0 personal:1.0 
 rpc:1.0 txpool:1.0 web3:1.0

> eth.coinbase
"0x05d4e1a499775ce9d681abd50bda655c7b5ccb90"

> miner.start(1)
null

...

> eth.blockNumber
0

The 'geth' Ethereum node is not crashing anymore with the 'miner' running. But there is no new blocks generated!

Note that you only need to set the "etherbase (also called coinbase)" once. "geth" will record it in node data files.
