fantastic! I am not familiar with the beaglebone black hardware format, but on pictures it looks much smaller than the one in S2.
I see USB, microUSB, 5V and Ethernet ports on pictures plus two multipin ports (for ribbon connectors?).

Did you power it through USB/micro USB and then connected to miner by the ribbon connector?

Thanks. I want to see if I can build S2 or S2-lite from parts.

the BBB in the S2 is exactly the same format as original. its only missing the USB ports and 5V

What you see in the S2 in the middle of the mining cards is an additional controller card.
the BBB is directly plugged onto this card with its multipin ports.
you can "easily" unplug the BBB

if you want to build a S2 you have to rebuild this card (as I think) or get it anywhere else

I see...I wasn't expecting another controller card (I thought that what is in the middle is actually BB because that's was where the microSD was).
This gets more complicated...thanks
