I realize we won't have formal instructions for users until much closer to the release, but I've asked the artwork team to create an image illustrating how to insert the F10 SD card into the XO.
I'll update this list with any progress reports.

Yes and no.
Kim has asked that we include printed instructions of some sort so I'm thinking we need to show both the proper direction to turn the monitor and then the card going into the slot. Though the images will probably be very helpful to the art team if they decide to take on the task.
I also don't have a lot of space because I'm going to be using a 4x6" card so I was hoping for a line drawing or something we won't loose detail on if we shrink it and go to black and white.
Though while I have you, do you know where I can find OLPC logo usage guidelines? Of course when I use the laptop.org wiki I get loads of pages talking about the Logo Application

The Fedora Art team is working on the graphics right now. In fact, Mike Langlie said he should have something for us in the next week.

They're done! and they're wonderful.

Very nice. The only issue is that step 3 shows the display pushed too far back.
Would someone be interested in fact-checking this for me before it's made public? http://on-disk.com/cms/index.php?wiki=Fedora_Live_on_One_Laptop_Per_Child_XO
Thank you, Todd

I don't think Atari cartridges work as a good analogy except for a small niche audience. You might want to try some simpler explanation instead.
Also, a random list of linux distributions at the end doesn't work very well in a article about Fedora and OLPC. If you want to, you can highlight other Linux distributions with OLPC focus.

Agreed. And the good list of those is here :-) http://sugarlabs.org/go/Supported_systems

Thanks guys.
When I began the article it was intended to be about how good "Live" Flash/SD installations work under linux, and the "random list" was actually a list of the best performing Live Persistent distributions we've had the privileged of putting on Flash Drives. But I was also wanting to throw Fedora at the top of the list for the effort with the F10/XO...so I basically chunked it in at the beginning and end.
Anyway, I've updated the short article with the sugarlab.org info, inserted a missing heading, and re-arranged the "random list" which helped clean it up.
Thanks again!

Our site stats are showing that the following website picked up Todd's article and as a result, we've got our first SD Card pre-order! (only 159 to go to pay off the $4,800 SD card bill - lol)
