[chirp_users] An early Christmas present for CHIRP users

[Jim Unroe]

Gary,
Are you talking about running UNetbootin on the micro SD card? It should be
saved to your computer somewhere convenient along with the
Chirp_LiveCD.iso. Then when you launch UNetbootin, click on the [ ... ]
button near the bottom right and then use the file manager that pops up to
select your Chirp_LiveCD.iso. Make sure the correct drive is selected and
then click the [OK] button. When UNetbootin is done writing to the micro SD
card, select [Exit]. Close out all of your apps, then you can reboot your
computer yourself.
