[App_rpt-users] D2700MUD and Limey...

[Randy Neals]

Problem solved! onward we go.
Jim politely reminded me to use the correct limey image on the D2700MUD
Mobo. :)
(I was using he standard i686 image)

For the benefit of others that are using teh D2700MUD Mobo here is the link.

Ok, I'm now booted and going through the first-time config.
