11.2.0 is the project previously known as "F14 for XO", now formalized into an official OLPC OS release. The full release plan is available at 11.2.0/Release plan.
Summary
11.2.0 is an OLPC OS release based on core system updates to Fedora 14, Linux 2.6.35, Sugar 0.92 and GNOME 2.32, planned to be released in June 2011. The target platforms are Target platforms::XO-1, Target platforms::XO-1.5, and XO-1.5 High School Edition.
Status
Status: Status::in development
Development is underway, according to Milestone 4 of the release plan.
Planned release date: Release date::2011-07-18
Download
Development builds are available here:
http://build.laptop.org/11.2.0
New builds are announced on the devel mailing list.
XO-1.5
To install from Open Firmware on an unlocked XO-1.5, download a .zd file to a USB drive. Choose the correct one: there are several. Files which end in .zd2 are for 2GB media and .zd4 is for 4GB media.
Insert the USB drive into the XO-1.5, get to the Ok prompt and type:
fs-update u:\osXX.zdN
Where osXX.zdN is the file you downloaded, for example os10.zd4.
There shouldn't be any XX in what you type.
XO-1
To install from Open Firmware on an unlocked XO-1, download the .onu and .uim files and type:
update-nand u:\osXX.onu
Upgrading with olpc-update
To install the latest 11.2.0 using olpc-update, you can run:
XO-1:
sudo olpc-update 11.2.0_xo1-XX
XO-1.5:
sudo olpc-update 11.2.0_xo1.5-XX
In both cases, "XX" must be substituted with the build number you wish to install (e.g. 14). See http://build.laptop.org/11.2.0 for the list.
Developers
The release is being built with Build system::OS Builder version Build system version::3.0 (master) under Build platform::Fedora 14. The f14, f14-xo1 and f14-xo1.5 RPM dropboxes are used.
Bug reports
We are now looking for bug reports on all levels - system, Sugar, ...
Please file bugs at http://dev.laptop.org. Leave the milestone field blank but mention clearly that you are testing 11.2.0, your bug report will then be triaged into the appropriate place.
What happened to 11.1.x?
At the time of planning this release around Fedora 14 for XO-1 and XO-1.5, we are in the interesting situation where software development for the ARM-based XO-1.75 is restricted to developing around F12/F13. The 11.1.x space is therefore reserved for a F12/F13 release for XO-1.75. In the future, we hope to produce joint software releases for all 3 laptops.
This oddity is expected to be a one-off; as soon as Fedora/ARM reaches Fedora 14, XO-1.75 releases will be able to share the same base (and versioning) as XO-1/XO-1.5 releases.
