Looking for something a little bit faster as far as specs for potential replacement of a RPi and am curious if Raspbian with Minera still function properly on a banana Pi. I know both have 2 different ARM processors but everything ive read is that any application ran on a ARM A6 will work on an ARM A7 and according to some articles when searching regarding both devices, they are apparently capabatable with eachother. And Banana Pi Website states Raspbian can be used, but there is alot of people also unsure or disagreeing that they are not compatable due to the interface of both devices and the hardware (processors) used for both of them. So I figured id ask before diving into it and replacing the Rpi

I think you can try directly with the Minera RPI image file, I think it should fit well on Banana too.
