Anyone know why a pi2 wont run on this controller? Is the controller just incompatible? I assumed since it sounds like all the controllers from KNCminer are identical, none of them would be compatible with the pi2. Didnt the neptune make an updated controller? I could be completely wrong on this as I dont follow neptunes. But if they did, then how to identify the updated one, and is their latest controller compatible with Titan Bridge and pi?

Yes.

:-)

The problem with the Pi2 is that the CPU type is not supported in the boot loader/IPL code that was on the last version of the 2.0 Titan firmware. I wonder if you can do an apt-get upgrade/update on a rpi, then boot it on a rpi2.

THat might be the best way to go. Or you can still buy a rpi 1.2 B unit.

My understanding is that code for Rpi2 would have to be recompiled in order to run it. We can't recompile the Titan code because it contains proprietary blobs which are used to run the FPGA on the controller. Those blobs were not released by KNC because they did not own them, thus did not have the authority to release the source code. Thus we're screwed.
