All,

Later today (after syncing) there will be RedSleeve 7.3 images for the
following systems:

- Raspberry pi model 1
- Raspberry pi model 2/3
- Odroid U3 (possibly also U2)
- Odroid XU3/XU4
- Odroid C2

on the normal location:
http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/ftp.redsleeve.org/pub/el7-devel/el7/rootfs/

The images for the raspberries and the XU3 will be quite slow on first
boot, they need to relabel their filesystem for selinux
