First you should have upgraded directly to 106S but tyhis is not a real problem looks like your beagle bone is broken...
Just get a new one here.
http://www.element14.com/community/community/designcenter/single-board-computers/next-gen_beaglebone/

replace it by carfully removing the old BBB form the control board.
flash the new BBB with http://www.kncminer.com/downloads/support/neptune/SD_Neptune_rc6.zip from microSD card...
to do this use a fat 16 formated sd card max 8 gb
make it booable with http://www.ptdd.com/fixboot.htm if you use microbullshit products , if you use linux use fdisk and set the boot flag on the partition table .. copt the flis from the zip file on the micro sd card.
put the micro sd in the BBB , power up the board and the BBB , it wil start and a withe , blue , green flashing light tells that flashing is finisched , remove card from beagle , now you sould have version 0.6 or someting , before you connect antything , imeadatly upgrade to 1.06s vir the web interface.
When done connect the cube
the defaults are all cubes off volatage -0.0366
, you need to reconfigure all you miner config including volatage speed , miner account , miner server , etc , if you cant do this soory you sould not have been buying this stuff , it requires some tech skills to operate an miner.
Maby I can buy the stuff from you for a good price Wink

, but if you understand what iam wiriting I hope this is helpfull.
btw you can sevarly undervolt the cubes I have them running as low as -0.0829 volts at 500 mhz!
one miner uses around 1880 watts at all cubes at 500mhz.
if your lucky.

Thanks for the reply. Do you suppose that even though it flashed to RC6 before, that it didn't work because I didn't have the sd bootable? I was hoping it was just something stupid, but looks like it's not. Another question before diving into this. How is the BBB attached? Screws? Pins? Solder?

That BBB information contradicts what KnC has said on their now dead forums, so follow it at your own risk. What is guaranteed to work is a BeagleBone Black Rev B6. It's what comes with KnC's miners and I've done that swap myself. FAT32 works just fine and is much easier to accomplish on any decent sized microSD card. Indeed it needs to be bootable. I wonder where he got that information *cough* lol. If you flashed it and the lights blinked correctly (white/blue/green), then it's probably a bad BBB. If it was the bootable issue, then it wouldn't have flashed at all.

Dear Sir/Madam.

We can see from our records that you have selected to receive a bonus Titan miner as part of the 2 for 1 offer we ran last year. Due technical issues in the selection process the Titan miner was not correctly registered as a choice and not accounted for. In this case we would like to offer you the following options instead of receiving the bonus Titan miner.

Option 1: Swap the bonus Titan miner for a free Neptune miner expected to ship within the next few weeks.

Or

Option 2: Receive a BTC payment of 3 Bitcoins per bonus Titan miner you were entitled to. (If you select this option please provide a BTC wallet address with your confirmation)

Please reply to this email to confirm your choice before the end of business 17:00 CET on Friday 3rd of April.

Thank you.
KnCMiner Team.

Wow, that really sucks. Sad

KnC's criminality just keeps pumping in high gear. You could fight for the Titan, but I doubt you will get it. Best to go the legal route if you plan to refuse the Neptune offer. As others have already said, 3BTC is pathetic and insulting. Depending on the power costs in your area, you can even mine more than that with the Neptune!

FYI, I've reached ROI now in BTC with my Neptune miners and I'm very, very glad that I only spent about half of the cost in "worthless" fiat dollars, because I'll likely never ROI in dollars with these continuously pathetic BTC prices. Sure, some miners are in it just for greed, like KnC, BFL, etc, but others are in it to support it AND come out with more tangible resources, which are bought with those "worthless" fiat dollars.
