http://dev.laptop.org/~wmb/q2e22a.rom This firmware contains a test version of the multicast NAND update utility. It can clone an XO's NAND image onto any number of other XO's simultaneously. (It can also send NAND images from USB sticks,etc, but I'm not ready for people to begin testing

Test 3, a different place, B4 acting as sender, five C2 as receiver, channel 1, four C2 updated fine in one or two passes. The C2 that I mentioned before is continuing to give trouble. Same symptom occurs, usually between 20 and 200 blocks after starting. Have tried varying position, channel,

MPP with two XOs and a pppd via GPRS
