Using Nard from VirtualBox with a Direct Ethernet Connection

[Ronny Nilsson]

Hi
It's hard to say what has suddenly stopped working... Here are some random 
items to check:

- Does the command  "make ssh 192.168.10.2"  work better?
- Set Windows to use static IP 192.168.10.3/255.255.255.0 and reboot PC.
- Can you ping Linux from Windows and vice versa?
- Can you ping the Raspberry from Linux or Windows?
- Does the network LED on Raspberry flash when you ping?
- Ensure Unix format of file  SDcard/settings/network  (this is bug that will 
be fixed in next Nard version).
