BTW, about the OLPC issue, will it be any more luck to try installing
from an USB stick? I am very pleased with the ability to install those
I tried that first. There are 2 sets of instructions, one for installing
with a disk image from a USB stick:

and another with compressed files:
http://www.olpcnews.com/forum/index.php?topic=1436.0
when I tried the disk image from USB, I became stuck at the stage of
moving the important files from the XO, but this probably just is
because I don't speak linux very fluently.
And then there is this thread on the differences between installing a
disk image vs. compressed files:
http://olpcnews.com/forum/index.php?topic=1629.0
and it says that to use a windows-readable filesystem I would have to
use compressed files, but I don't understand the implications of that.
If, for example, I want to copy files back & forth from a Windows or Mac
box, or copy images from my digital camera, do I have to use the
compressed files approach?
Thanks--marc.
