So i asked the person selling these on ebay where he got them from. They were in a product called KnCMiner a bitcoin mining computer they had the connectors stripped off so they could stack them tight it was just a cheap processor with ethernet to them. they are available now because the company

What I would do with this board to use it and power it, is use the power jack holes. Whether or not anyone else could do this, I cannot say. Then again, what I would do is only speculation on my part because I don't think I would have bought this board.. Gerald On Sat, Oct 15, 2016 at 1:20 PM,

I think he meant the header power pins rather than a GPIO pin. On 10/15/2016 11:04 AM, Gerald Coley wrote: > Anyone has the right to build this board. That in no way infers that > they know how to build it or even can support it. All the parts look > in the right place, but it is not a Rev

Hi Gerald, I think he is asking if the board can be powered via the P9 header. Or is this not possible either ? Like insinuated in the image below. http://zewaren.net/site/sites/default/files/imagepicker/1/bbb_can_pinout.jpg On Sat, Oct 15, 2016 at 11:04 AM, Gerald Coley

Anyone has the right to build this board. That in no way infers that they know how to build it or even can support it. All the parts look in the right place, but it is not a Rev B.Looks more like a Rev C. Rev B was built using the AM3359 processor. It has the BeagleBone logo, but not the .org

Thanks for the info, Gerald. I will keep it and see what I can do with it. In the least I am going get replacement USB ports and power ports and put them in. At the same time I ordered through another seller a "complete" Rev. B board for $30. They say that is Debian on it and not Angstrom,
