  Well it was trying to retrieving from file://root/local but it

 Just like you used yum to install firefox in the field, did you ask OOB
 to install firefox? In your ini file you need to use:

 [custom_packages]
 add_packages=firefox

 olpc_frozen_2=0,koji.dist-f17-armv7hl-updates-12.1.0

 Don't worry, these are not the koji repos you are thinking of. They
 are OLPC's frozen versions of fedora repos from the release's freeze
 date and are not directly from koji - really we should change the
 naming scheme.

 And this is the cause of the problem - upon release freeze date, the
 firefox/xulrunner situation was in inconsistent state; this problem
 has been frozen in our repos.

 Basanta, I would advise against adding the official fedora-updates
 repo into your build as has been suggested in this thread - while this
 will result in a well matched firefox/xulrunner combination, it will
 bring in a lot of untested package updates that were not part of the
 release and have probably not been tested on OLPC XO.

 Instead, create a local repo with these 2 packages and add it to your
 build config:
 http://arm.koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=109570
 http://arm.koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=116355

It will need newer nss*/nspr builds too.

Hi Basanta,

Think this has something to do with firefox wanting a specific xulrunner
version. Can you confirm what version is installed with: rpm -q
xulrunner. 

I have a workaround that I used with F14 that should still work with
this situation. Which repos are enabled in olpc-so-builder when you
generate the image?

 You can use the olpc-os-builder custom_pkgs module to add firefox, and
