Virtualman dropped this one on New Years Eve, we’ve left it a week, so we can try and adequately report back on any bugs, its proven in the past that when a Virtualman image drops its usually swiftly followed by a fix, in this case there is no fix, however there is one thing to be more than aware of , thats this is VERY PICKY as to what 256gb Micro SD Card it actually fits on, RECOMMENDED SD 256GB Samsung U3 – Virtualman is transparent with this and mentions it in his description and has asked us to ensure we mention it to you, here Virtualman himself shows you whats new.
