This page is generic installation instructions activated by template transclusion, and looking at the page like this (and not in Edit) won't help you understand it. The parameters expected are:

  • model: MODEL (XO-1 or XO-1.5, case is significant)
  • build: BUILD (which build, e.g. os206)
  • signed: SIGNED (yes or no)
  • release: RELEASE (which release version this build is intended for, e.g. 10.1.2)
  • path: PATH (the path via HTTP to the directory that contains the build file)

It differs from "Sofware Install" in that it is modified for the zd2/zd4/zd8 notation


How to install

build BUILD of release RELEASE on MODEL.

The build is installed to the internal storage device. You will need a USB drive of at least 1 GB capacity, but only for the duration of the installation.

ALL USER DATA WILL BE ERASED FROM THE LAPTOP!

  • Prepare the USB drive:
    • Download [{{{path}}}/{{{build}}}. {{{build}}}.],
    • Save the file to the top directory of the USB drive,
  • Prepare the laptop:
    • Make a copy of any data you wish to keep,
    • Check the battery is inserted and locked,
    • Check that the power cord is in place and the battery indicator is green,
    • Turn off the laptop, unless it is already off,
    • Insert the USB drive into any USB port on the laptop,
  • Start installing:


Installation progress will be displayed. Green colour will fill

blocks. It will take about

minutes. Once finished,

The USB drive can be used on other laptops.
