=Customizing the XO= |
|||
See [[#Logistics|Logistics]] first. Basic customization is covered there. |
|||
==Customizing Build== |
|||
# Install os image 703 from Forth prompt copy-nand u:\os703.img --> you must have os703.img and os703.crc on your USB key |
|||
# Power off |
|||
# Insert USB key that has Customization Key v2 installed on it |
|||
# Hold down X game key then turn on the XO |
|||
# Release the game key when prompted to do so |
|||
# The Activity pack should install itself and then power off |
|||
# Boot up and make your changes, such as installing rpms |
|||
# When done, delete the user-specific changes you have made |
|||
#* rm -r /home/olpc.sugar/default |
|||
#* rm /var/lib/dbus/machine-id |
|||
#* There may be other machine-specific settings that I am not aware of but should be deleted |
|||
# Reboot |
|||
# Go to the Forth prompt and type save-nand u:\os703-b1.img, this will also generate a u:\os703-b1.crc file |
|||
# Clone other XO's using these two files |
|||
