Here is a procedure for installing and running Internet-in-a-Box on an 
XO-4 using a external USB harddrive.
This is a first pass!  We should package this.

Installing on an OLPC XO Laptop


Installation of the Internet-in-a-Box server on an XO-4 running OLPC OS 13.1

1. Flash the OS with a USB key, boot, connect to your wireless network

2. Open Terminal, sudo -i

3. Enable SSHD (optional)
    vi /etc/ssh/sshd_config
    Uncomment line "PermitRootLogin yes"
    systemctl restart sshd
    passwd root  # Create a root password
    The rest of these instructions can now be executed via ssh

4.  Install compilers and build essentials:
    (This is overkill - we don't need all these dependencies)
    yum -y groupinstall "Development Tools"
    yum -y install python-devel python-pip nginx xz-devel screen vim

5. Install python dependencies
    python-pip install Flask-Babel whoosh
    # You must clean up the pip-build-root dir before SQLAlchemy
    # or you will run out of /tmp space
    rm -rvf /tmp/pip-build-root
    python-pip install Flask-SQLAlchemy

6. Plug in the Internet-in-a-Box USB Hard Drive
    It will auto-mount at /run/media/olpc/knowledge

7. Create a link from /knowledge
    ln -s /run/media/olpc/knowledge/knowledge /knowledge

8. Link nginx configuration
    ln -s /knowledge/internet-in-a-box/conf/iiab_nginx.conf 
/etc/nginx/conf.d/

9. Create a local.ini configuration file
    cd /knowledge/internet-in-a-box
    cat <<EOF >local.ini
    [KIWIX]
    url = /iiab/zim
    zimdump = /knowledge/sys/bin-arm/zimdump-patched
    EOF

10. Run!
