So if I understand you have successfully flashed the boards, but are unable to get cgminer to recognize and begin mining with them?

I'm curious how did you actually interface with the boards to flash them? Is there a USB connection, or UART maybe? And once they are flashed how did you connect them to the Pi? I'm hoping its standard USB, but if its UART or something else that complicates things.

It is UART. There's a way to connect them easier to the pi with a UART USB adapter. I have not tried that, but the guide I linked shows you how to use those too.

Thanks. I edited my comment to say I read through and found its UART, and then when I saw your response I accidentally deleted it...one of those days I guess.

My next question though...these drivers are designed for bfgminer, so why did you choose cgminer?

Sorry it is bfgminer. I have no idea why I put cgminer. I've been using cg for my gpus I got them mixed. Sorry for the confusion.
