You should use each key in the following order

Collector key

This gets the serial number in order to create an activation code/developer key.

  1. Plug the stick in a turned off XO, and turned it on. The data will be stored and the XO will be automatically rebooted.
  2. You can move on the next XO using the same stick, until you are done.
  3. It is advisable if you keep track of the order of the XOs at which you put the key. Every time you apply the collector key you should stick a name tag on the XO, and keep the order. In the end we can pair serial numbers with names.
  4. In the end we can use the LAPTOPS.DAT file created in the usb to create a developer key.

Developer key

For every LAPTOPS.DAT file we will create a develop.sig file.

  1. Paste this file in the security directory in the developer key
  2. You can apply the same key in all XOs from which you created the LAPTOPS.DAT file.
  3. Plug the stick when the XO is turned off, and turn it on.
  4. While it says "Type the ESC key to interrup" press the ESC key.
  5. Type disable-security and enter. The XO will reboot automatically.
  6. Again, while it says "Type the ESC key.." press the ESC key.
  7. Type for a second time disable-security and enter. The XO will reboot automatically
  8. Do not let it boot. Turn it off again by holding the Power button.

Upgrade key

All XOs will be upgraded to the latest Update.1 build 700.

  1. Plug the key while the XO is off, and turn it on
  2. After several minutes the XO will
