The kernel won't boot on an XO right now. But I'm working on that
Thanks for the hint. As soon as it does, then very small schools can
start running the XS build on the XO hw, which is a long-requested
feature.
It mainly needs to be able to install on a USB drive (of the spinning
platters kind ;-) ), boot from there, do networking. Install-to-NAND
and boot-from-NAND is nice (and can give us a very resilient "OS on
NAND, data on HD" setup) but not required at the moment.
cheers,
