I would like to install jupyter notebook on the OLPC XO laptops. The 
software is based on Fedora 18 - Sugar version 0.110. It has Python 2.7 
installed, but no Python 3.The XO has a file system limit of 1GB for the 
XO-1, 2GB for the XO-1.5, and 4GB for the XO-1.75 and XO-4. The latter two 
have ARM processors. 

Since a school has many laptops (200 is typical), it is not feasible to 
install by downloading from the internet for each install. What is needed 
is an installable image - tar or rpm. The recommended Anaconda strategy is 
not feasible due to these storage limitations. Pip uses /tmp to cache the 
downloaded tarballs. This could yield a set of tarballs to use in a local 
install; however, the XO /tmp has a limit of 50MB. The installed version of 
pip does not have a cache-dir option.

JupyterHub might be an option except there is no internet access at the 
schools so a local server is used. I believe having many laptops using 
Jupyter Notebook on the server would be too much for the processor. Our 
general strategy is to have processing done so far as possible on the 
individual laptops.

I am hoping someone will be able to guide me to a method to install Jupyter 
Notebook in this environment.

Tony
