Hello Everyone

Thank you for the advice all..  Very much appreciated.

I have replaced the contents of the /boot from 'raspi-v2-redsleeve-cli-0.6.
img.xz' with those on master.zip and managed to get it to boot!  This is
what I got -

It did complain about missing module from /lib/module, I guess I need to
fix that too.

Anything else that I need to lookout for, all advices are very much
appreciated.

Maulvi
