 I'm planning to load the latest snapshot on two XO-1 laptops using 
 Option 3 described here:
 
 http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Sugar_on_a_Stick/Installation/OLPC
 
 Will that work?

The answer is no. Now I have an XO laptop that doesn't boot. It shows 
the XO man and that's it. How do I debug this?

I held down the Check button so I could see the boot messages. Maybe I 
haven't waited long enough. It stopped at creating devices (after 
starting udevd).

 A few lines up from the last boot message, it says:
 
 mount: unknown filesystem type 'jffs2'
 
 That can't be a good sign.

I got the same failure with the Strawberry release. Has anybody realized 
success with Option 3?

This is indeed not a good sign. We've had this some time ago with the 
Rawhide-XO builds. Apparently, it affects our general images, too.

See for the report: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=500196

Martin Dengler has been building special builds of SoaS for the XO, 
which we should probably get out soon. Martin, what's the current state 
of that, can we put 'em up? :)

 I got the same failure with the Strawberry release. Has anybody realized
 success with Option 3?

 http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Sugar_on_a_Stick/Installation/OLPC

I wasn't aware of the fact that it affects us directly, but it looks 
like we might need to clean up our docs at some point...

Sorry for the issues,

Thanks for your candid admission. I noted the problem on the wiki.

[Sugar-devel] Who's interested in testing a new installer for SoaS?

2009-08-08 Thread Sebastian Dziallas
Hi everybody,

I'm looking for some volunteers to test the hard disk installation with 
the latest SoaS snapshot and newly designed installer. Since this 
upstream project is really in the early stages of development but also 
concerns a pretty critical part of SoaS, I'd prefer getting some testing 
before throwing it in a snapshot and possibly breaking stuff.

If you're interested and aware of the risk, please drop me a line.

Thanks,
--Sebastian

I am interested in testing it (mainly on VMs (Fusion and VirtualBox)
on Mac and QEMU on Windows)
