If you wish to reconstruct or customize an unreleased/development OLPC OS version, instead of using a released version of olpc-os-builder, check out the most recent development version of olpc-os-builder from git. Note that the development version will not be able to (correctly) reconstruct or customize official OLPC OS releases which have been finalized (use the standard process to obtain the correct olpc-os-builder version for that purpose).

# yum install git

Then, as your regular user:

% git clone git://dev.laptop.org/projects/olpc-os-builder
% cd olpc-os-builder
