Power up boot sequence for activated, secure laptops
Laptops can be pre-activated at the factory (G1G1 laptops, for example) or they can be activated with a key, as in typical country deployments. This is the boot up sequence for either type of activated laptop.
- Press Power Button; Power LED should come on; Start up sound should play
- Backlight comes on
- White XO character appears in the middle of the screen
- After a few seconds the XO character separates and the top half slowly revolves in a circle; 12 dots appear in the positions of numbers on a clock face
- After as much as a few minutes, the Sugar home screen appears
- The XO character in the center is now colored
- A Journal icon appears in the 'donut'
- Battery and Wifi symbols appear below the donut
- A row of activity icons appear along the bottom
- Four navigation icons appear along the top
If you do not see the items listed above once the laptop has finished booting; there may be a problem with the software build. Software trouble-shooting would be the next step. Document the version of the build and the openfirmware.
