I have an XO-1 that has stopped booting correctly after I tried to install some large activities from a flash drive.
I cannot make a clean install because it has firmware security enabled and I am unable to interrupt the boot without the developer key, which I don't have. I can't create one because it doesn't boot. On boot, the normal screen is an XO symbol, which then spins 360 degrees tracing out a circle of dots. On this one, it slows and crawls to a stop before completing the circle. If I leave it running it gets to a state where a white screen flashes up (as if Sugar is beginning to start) then flashes off and the command lines etc are seen....eventually it says it is disabling for minutes due to "respawning too fast" and I have a window when I can log onto the back end / shell as root and type commands. But not sure what to do! David Leeming
