Todd -
I don't understand why someone thought F10 for the XO would be done
BEFORE today, since today's the GA release date (and has been for some
time). I certainly never expected to see a GA release sooner, and in
fact expected you'd take a day or two after getting the GA release to
make sure you were comfortable with it before going into production.
I have always relied on the livecd-iso-to-disk.sh script from Jeremy
at
http://katzj.fedorapeople.org/olpc/ and while I would wait to hear
from him before production, I believe that is the right source. The
most recent version is dated yesterday (24-Nov-2008).

At this point we have customers expecting to have their orders
shipped TODAY, and I still don't have the final livecd-iso-to-
disk.sh script we are supposed to use, or an ISO to use it on. There
will still be a couple of hours of testing after getting them before
we can do a production run. With each passing means that just that
many more customers will not have their orders mailed out today.
We have been told all along that F10 for the XO would be finished
BEFORE today, and that there wouldn't be a problem getting what we
needed for production prior to the F10 release. Obviously getting
anything in advance is no longer possible, and I'm wondering, from
the lack of input here, just where things stand?
It's crunch time here and all I hear are crickets chirping.
