Now that we have F10 booting on the XO, and we understand the
challenges around that, is it possible to boot a barebones F9,
"backporting" whatever cleverness was applied to F10?
Is anyone interested in trying? It would open an opportunity
to lots of small schools that need a rugged server.
The XS is likely to stay on F9 for a couple of minor releases -- until
I find a good opportunity for a rebase, being a small team is hard :-/
-- so if F9 can be twisted into booting off and SD card, we get a
valuable alternative in the form of XO + SD card + USB drive (for
storage).
cheers,
martin
