-=== Installation Caveats ===
-* After you reflash, you must power cycle by physically removing power from the system.  A warm-start or button-induced restart is not sufficient.  Please remove both the battery pack and wall adapter for 10 seconds.
-''ATest users only:'' If you use olpcflash to write this image, you must use the --brick option.<br> Example: <code>olpcflash --brick -w image.rom</code><br> This will update your EC code.
-BTest-1 users should '''NOT''' use olpcflash to write new firmware images.  Doing so will erase the manufacturing data that was added at the factory.
