nice. how does this interact with future "apt-get update"? is
there anything to watch out for (e.g., kernel getting
overwritten, etc)?

It's buried in the text below, in the NAND installation section.

It's trac 8785, fixed in http://wiki.laptop.org/go/OLPC_Firmware_q2e20,
which I released specifically for the benefit of this debxo thing. I
guess Andres forgot to mention that in the announcement.

Looks like an Open Firmware regression.
This works if I use laptop firmware q2e14 instead of q2e18.
Thanks !

Trying to installing either the gnome or awesome JFFS2 versions from
an SD card formatted as ext2.
Using laptop firmware q2e18, on two different machines, this fails with:
<>:75: error writing to NAND Flash
after writing 40 blocks.
What is going on ?

Hi,
I've prepared a new release of DebXO. This has a number of new
features and desktops.
NEW FEATURES:
- The JFFS2 images now have partition support. While this shaves a
number of seconds off of the boot time, we can take better advantage of
it in the future (doing things like using UBIFS).
