Richard, Thanks very much. I have the instructions for the Mesh Portal. I was trying to reinstall the same image for the experience only :) But I am still at a loss as to why it would work automatically as in the instructions on the wiki.

Are you manually editing the olpc.fth file to try and load a later image? you can load images manually with: copy-nand disk:/<path/to/imagefile> So if you have a file nand387.img located in the top level dir / it would be: copy-nand disk:/nand387.img > 2.

They The current setup require a mesh portal to work. You need an additional box running the mesh portal stuff. This is a temp solution until we work out a few of the thorny issues with mesh bringup. -- Richard Smith <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> One Laptop Per Child _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.laptop.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
