Re: [solved] freezing DCON for insecure boot

B4 doesn't have the activate entry in mfg-data as I check which might be the cause? Do I have to double check something in my mfg-data?

The Forth command freeze will cause the dcon-freeze command to be executed at the next transition to a booted program. Either can be executed from inside olpc.fth The reason for the freeze command is so that screen animations showing the progress of bootloading sub-steps can be seen, but then the Linux black-screen text messages will be hidden. Putting dcon-freeze at the top of boot.fth resulted the custom logo being displayed nicely as in secure boot with no additional tweaks required. Thanks!
