Installation Caveats

• If you use olpcflash to write this image, you must use the --brick option.
• After you reflash, you must power cycle by physically removing power from the system. A warm-start or button-induced restart is not sufficient. Please remove both the battery pack and wall adapter for 10 seconds.

Known issues

• Auto-repeat is slow on some USB keyboards
• NVRAM storage for configuration variables is not yet implemented.
• JFFS2 does not pay attention to the bad block table.
• JFFS2 does not handle ECC
• The boot menu is incomplete
• Dirctory symlinks have a problem.
