[arm-allstar] WIN32DISKIMAGER

[larry]

Doug and Dave just a comment along the disk image copy line.

When copying a large SD partition and shrinking it to what ever size the 
data consumes on the original SD, the Resizer in the link below works 
great. I have used it quite a few times and it works excellent.
