As per my knowledge sugar V0.82 is OS of XO1.
Almost correct. Sugar is the desktop component of the operating system
on XO-1.
When we installing build 8.2.2 into XO1 we need .img file and .crc
file related to build version according to the installation guide.
Yes. The installation process uses firmware program built into laptop
to load the image file into the storage.
* Is that .img file converted from the sugar V0.82?
Almost correct. The image file is prepared by OLPC software using many
hundreds of components, among them is Sugar.
* What is the difference of sugar V0.82 and .img file?
Difference is of format and inclusions.
Sugar is not an operating system, it is a collection of programs that
form a desktop user experience. An underlying operating system is
required.
OLPC merges Fedora 9 and Sugar to create the .img file.
FYI all versions of OLPC Release 8.2.x are based on Sugar 0.82
That includes desired Release 8.2.2 which you should test here:
http://dev.laptop.org/~martin/8.2.2-betas/
Specifically the 2 files you'll want to download are:
os802b5.crc <http://dev.laptop.org/%7Emartin/8.2.2-betas/os802b5.crc>
os802b5.img <http://dev.laptop.org/%7Emartin/8.2.2-betas/os802b5.img>
