The new raspberry pi zero w will not boot with this image. On the raspberry pi website it states that you need the latest version of the OS in order for the Pi to boot.
Does anyone know if there is a way to get the programs needed and do the install myself until a more recent image is available?
Thanks for the help!

If you have a RasPi 3 (or perhaps the B+ or 2), you could set up the image there (flash it, run the setup program, and then load it and let it boot to configure the system). Then run the following command in an LX Terminal Window:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
After the upgrades are completed, reboot the pi at least once, shut it down, and transfer the card to the pi Zero W.
Should work, but also might not work, so I recommend doing it on a separate SD card where it won't matter if it all gets borked.

It worked! The trick was the rebooting multiple times, strange. I reboot 3 times and that finally did the trick. I will continue testing today. Thanks!

And, FWIW, v2.02 for the DVAP is uploading to the server now, tested and working with the Pi Zero Wireless.
The current dvMega version is still V2.01.
