Dear student
 

The only change needed if the two boxes are identical is to divide the number of ways by two, since swapping boxes produces two different cases when the boxes (as well as the objects) are distinct.

So

2n-1 - 1 ways to fill the two identical boxes subjected to having neither empty.
