Summary

This is one of possible reference implementations of Harmonic Distribution based solutions. The goal is creating Sugar based downstream distribution to run on OLPC XO laptops.

Try

To try reference implementation on an XO laptop, download one of prebuilt images and proceed below instructions to flash it. Note that images were built using recent development version of software. So, images might be used to easily test recent changes.

XO-1

  • First, ensure that your laptop is unlocked.
  • Download xo.img and xo.crc files to the root directory of a USB stick or SD card.
  • Drop to the "ok" prompt by pressing   (Esc) repeatedly during boot.
  • Type the command: copy-nand u:\xo.img for a USB stick or copy-nand sd:\xo.img for a SD card followed by   (enter).
  • Wait for the display to fill in with color and the "ok" prompt to return
  • Type the command reboot followed by   (enter)
  • The XO will reboot, finish writing, reboot itself, and take you to the naming and color choice process
  • During the reboots, keep the charger connected to allow OFW to self-update

XO-1.5

  • First, ensure that your laptop is unlocked.
  • Download xo.zd to the root directory of a USB stick
  • Drop to the "ok" prompt by pressing   (Esc) repeatedly during boot
  • Type the command: fs-update u:\xo.zd followed by   (enter)
  • Wait for the display to fill in with color and the "ok" prompt to return
  • Type the command reboot followed by   (enter)
  • The XO will reboot and take you to the naming and color choice process
