No problem - do you have a pdf of circuit diagram?
I'm looking at R1 and it appears a (yellow) C is fitted (see the photos 
http://www.gplsquared.com/eoma_boot/eoma_boot.html )
[I can peer review the circuit if you would like me to.]

Notes to Chris:
1. C1 is over rated - use smaller voltage for smaller cap to reduce
board height - get it below the ethernet socket height to build array.
2. Leave more space around hole near DC socket to allow for spacer to be
fitted. I want to build a parallel array.
3. Hey Chris mi old harty, how many orders do you need to start next
batch? (I can buy max 4 more to build my EOMA supercomputer array.)

No VGA pins on 44 pin header?

I may be missing something and have lost threads - please resend 
 "the circuit from the A13 board that was discussed last week"
and I'll check what can be done.
