[App_rpt-users] for those Limey Linux and or D525MW users who are brave enough

I have compiled a test version of Limey Linux version 1.1.5 that appears
to properly support the new Intel D525MW Atom motherboard.

This is an 'augmented' version of the i686-suported-1.1.5 release, so
it *should* work on all the previously-supported i686 processors, also.

There were some rather major changes (necessary to support SATA
interfaces) in the hard disk driver stuff (even for those MB's that only
have IDE), so it would be nice if some people could verify that this still
works on non-D525MW motherboards (at least the ones that work in
the normal release).

I have tested this release on both a D525MW and the D945GCLF series
motherboards, and it seems to work just fine.

Also, if you have 5 minutes to wait for it to boot (since the SWINE boot loader does
not support anything faster then USB 1.1 speed, YUCH!), you can flash
the distro onto a USB pen drive (>= 128 MB), and it will work. Once the
OS loads, it runs at full speed, just the initial boot load is PAINFULLY slow.

If you dare, here is the URL for this version:
