Error creating backing files

[cimryan]

The Windows setup process was changed to prevent the expansion of mmcblk0p1 after first boot, but the Mac/Linux instructions weren't updated.

I updated the Mac/Linux instructions. Give that a shot; I think it'll fix the issue you encountered. My linux installation was hosed so I haven't been able to work on automating the Mac/linux setup process. Maybe I'll get to it tomorrow.

Looks like you got past this point. I'll close this issue.
