[MinnowBoard] elinux-MinnowBoard Digest, Vol 93, Issue 1

I have an MBM, along with a SilverJaw lure by TincanTools.   The lure has a
120GB SSD, along with an Intel AC-Wireless 7260.   It seemed to work ok with
a 2.5A power supply but to be on the safe side, I went with this 5V 4A power
supply.  Works great.

If you need more than that, here is a 5V 10A

The voltage isn't the point of issue here, it's the amperage.  You should be
able to look at the power supply itself and see what the amperage is.  If
it's not 2.5A or greater (generally speaking) you are likely getting a
brown-out on power on which is why you are seeing D2 blink.
