We shouldn't have builds that can be released with failures to install critical components, and I don't think we can blame ASLO for this. I think the build sequence should either cache the required content or fail to proceed if the required content is not available. ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
Customization stick for XO-1.5
I wrote a dracut module that can produce an initramfs for a customization stick. It's based on Michael's code for the currently-available customization stick. Released in dracut-modules-olpc-0.3.0. Build instructions here: http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Customization_stick_development We should build and sign one of these before first XO-1.5 OS release. http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/9738 I can do the building nearer the time, someone else will have to sign it.

updates.laptop.org now serves F11-for-XO1.5 builds
Hi, updates.laptop.org now serves F11-for-XO1.5 builds through olpc-update. However, olpc-update is a little broken in the latest OS release. So, once os45 is released (today) you will have to install it using the usual reflash methods. From that point, you can upgrade to os46 and onwards using e.g. olpc-update f11_xo1.5-46 It should work as well as olpc-update worked before. Please help test it. The first person who tries to sync to a specific OS version will cause the updates.laptop.org server to go out, download and unpack the build locally, before serving it to you. So don't panic if it doesn't start for a minute or 2. Daniel ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel

XO-1.5 Testing Wanted Report
Dear Testers, http://dev.laptop.org/report/42 has been created to identify tickets that have action needed values of test in release or test in build, for the XO-1.5 effort. test in build means that the ticket owner is looking for someone to test a build to verify that a problem has been fixed. The problem should be mentioned at the start of the ticket. A way to prove the problem is fixed might be mentioned. A build number might be mentioned. If you test it, you write saying that you confirm the fix, with the build number you tested, and (at the moment) close the ticket with an action resolve as fixed. This will change if we enter strict change control, but we aren't in that mode yet. If you have any questions, please ask.
