Oct 18, 2018 at 5:31 comment added Bass @HenningMakholm reading the question carefully, the requirement is "all the pieces were on their possible starting squares", which is important, because otherwise there couldn't be a solution, I think.

Oct 17, 2018 at 23:36 comment added hmakholm left over Monica The analysis sounds convincing, but this does not appear to satisfy the requirement that "all the remaining units stands on the same squares as at the beginning of a game" -- black's g8 knight is now at b8.
