Hi, I am part of a trial in the Pacific islands region. We have a few B2s, running build 385/q2b87. Two issues we have are: 1. Installing new boot image. Trying to test the auto reinstallation image process. I have a number of USB disks and flash drives. I followed the instructions and had the boot image extracted from the zip onto the device in a primary partition. However, it won't boot from the USB device but reports "Can't open the disk label package" and goes on to boot from the internal image. I tried to interupt the countdown, probed for USB2 devices and it finds the disk/flash drive and it shows as an scsi device. 2. Mesh Network. We couldn't get a group of 3 B2s to see each other. We are based in different countries so only had a chance during a 2-hour meeting. They can see hotspots and connect happily with them. I can see a wireless newtork "olpc-mesh" detected on my Windows laptop. But with the three laptops in different corners of the same hotel room, nothing appeared on the network neighbourhood screen apart from the mesh network icon, flashing variously. As an obvious OLPC novice I would appreciate any guidance. David Leeming Project Manager, Distance Learning Centres Project (DLCP) Technical Advisor, People First Network (PFnet) P.O.
