Hi Sridhar,
I don't fully understand your scenario.
You say an XS is not an option... but I thought you were using XS,
with Jerry's help? If you are using XS, you can use Moodle.
If there is no XS, then any webbased tool that offers a file upload
form to post a file to share will work. You can

Hi,
Currently, olpc-os-builder prelinks the whole filesystem during the
build process.
Unfortunately this is causing olpc-update to do lots of work, as even
when you prelink the same binary twice, the output changes, e.g.:
[root@dsdfedora bin]# prelink -u /usr/lib/libxml2.so.2

If I were doing this, I would take an OLPC OS or your derivative, add a
conventional Fedora kernel to /boot, then add and configure grub.
If you have done that, tell us the result?
Been there, done that and failed. [1]
Any objections to prelink being disabled?
I object. You are running a diskless, swapless system. The whole
point of prelink is to make your read-only binaries actually remain
read-only, rather than requiring the dynamic linker to modify them
in memory. This allows large numbers of pages of

Why not remove or normalise the timestamp in the prelink output?
I made a local version of prelink that avoided the use of time(2) in
