Another Problem the Computer Couldn't Solve

It's possible but it doesn't matter, the mate still happens after black moves his pawn to h3

another one of those easier retro-problems disguised as mate-in-n --- yawn.
There are some real difficult ones of this kind... [of course the computer can solve it if you give it the right fen ;) ] the diagram has the wrong fen - if you click the pgn/fen dropdown box , then THAT fen has no mate-in-2!
Oh piotr has covered that in his post...
I think the solution is similar to that of the problem "mate in one". Don't forget anything "en passant"

solved it fast... This is a sweet mate. Pretty simple, don't know why the computer couldn't solve it.

I admit, I didn't see it until I saw this comment.
All this talk about "en pasant"...
This is another option:
1. Bc2 h2 (1... h5 2. Bxh7#) 2. Bxh7#
Nice and easy
