Which are the game keys?

The four buttons to the lower right of the screen, with a square, circle, X, and checkmark on them. —Joe 09:32, 21 December 2007 (EST)

How to determine version?

How do you determine which version you are running?

There are instructions for determining this on the autoreinstallation image page. —Joe 09:41, 21 December 2007 (EST)
Run the command 'cat /etc/issue'. --Michael Stone 16:56, 22 December 2007 (EST)

Key/USB key/USB stick/game key

The terminology used here is very confusing. "the key" in 1.3 is not clear what it is and there are references to "game key" and "usb stick" as well.

"Hold onto the key" is also confusing with "hold all four game buttons" (at least for non-native English speakers).

(It is maintained by the "team" so I didn't make changes directly.)

Well I did edit the page. I tried to preserve the original meaning so please take a look at it and do further corrections. Ohshima 00:20, 24 December 2007 (EST)

From a computer: Go here in a web browser: http://download.laptop.org/xo-1/os/official/latest/jffs2/

Download os###.img and fs.zip from that directory.

From the laptop: Plug the flash drive into the laptop. Push and hold all of the game keys on right of the laptop while powering it on, and hold the keys for 5 seconds.

The laptop will then update itself.
