Yea, FWIW I had a quick go as a test case trying to see if it was  
possible to install Soas booted from a USB stick onto the XO nand. I  
was doubtful it was going to work (due to the XO custom hardware), but  
I didn't get too far anyway as the current Soas does not have  
anaconda; and trying a yum install it got close to complete before the  
XO went OOM and locked up.

I may try again in Virtual Box.
