This page is about determining which way to re-flash a laptop (for upgrading without re-flashing, which deletes all data on the laptop, use olpc-update)

Determine the State of your laptop

Action: Boot your laptop

If...

  1. Your laptop gives you the option to get to the ok prompt by pressing escape
  2. Your laptop shows pretty boot, meaning you have no option to get to the ok prompt, and you see an XO with dots going around it
  3. Your laptop shows an XO with a red blinking usb key icon below it, and then a blinking wi-fi icon.
