i think its uncommode to look here and there, a first short excerpt, with my fails and links still here. maybe a single "install on OLPC" page should be created.

Please read the instructions found [http://www.olpcnews.com/forum/index.php?topic=4768.msg31772#msg31772%3E on the OLPC News site].
Please read the instructions found [http://www.olpcnews.com/forum/index.php?topic=4768.msg31772#msg31772%3E on the OLPC News site]. Refer to Message #3: "How to install". You must have a Developer Key, and security disabled on your OLPC.

* Note: Be sure to plug in your laptop using its AC charger to ensure that the installation process is completed. (The firmware will not be updated under battery power.)
* Put these files (.img and .crc) on a USB stick formated as FAT32.
* Put the two corresponding files (.img and .crc) of the same version-number on a bootable USB/SD device formated as FAT32.
* Add your [http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Activation_and_developer_keys Developer Key] to the USB.
* Add your [http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Activation_and_developer_keys Developer Key] to the USB.
*'''Be certain to disable security first as per the instructions.'''
*'''Be certain to disable OLPC-security first as per the instructions.''' You can control this, when Open firmware prompts: "No WP Tag" it means "is already disabled".
* Follow the instructions as per Message #3 (and following troubleshooting).
* Connect your device to the OLPC
* Note: Be sure to plug in your laptop using its AC charger to ensure that the installation process is completed. (The firmware will not be updated under battery power.)
* Boot while holding down the "checkmark button".
When Open Firmware counts down 3 seconds "...before automatic startup", push the "escape button", to get to the "OK" OpenFirmware prompt.
** If the files were downloaded onto an USB stick:
type
probe-usb
Press Enter.
Control if Open Firmware has detected your device. (A "found" usb when probing, eg usb:/***/disk means u have to name it in the command: copy-nand disk:\os***py.img)
Then type
copy-nand usb:\os***py.img
and press Enter.
(note: replace *** with your actual versionnumber/filename.)
** If the files were downloaded onto a SD card:
type
copy-nand sd:\os***py.img
and press Enter.
* when the colored points arent changing anymore and Open Firmware says: OK
disconnect your USB/SD and type
reboot
When there happens a failure message (or no at all but no booting-process), try to overwrite your files a second time, try to re-download your file (eg "crc miscompare"), try to reformat your usb-stick (eg "is not a multiple of the nand erase block size"), try googling...
try!
In the case of success: '''Enjoy!'''
