OLPC-AU

[Jerry Vonau]

Hi All:

This is to announce that we may have a Release Candidate with the latest
OLPC-AU build for the XO-1.5 featuring sparse file support[1], is now
available for testing[2]. This build has q3a65 firmware in the payload,
so you might get an upgrade if your firmware is not up to that level.
The upload is in progress, please be patient.

Thanks for testing,

Jerry

[OLPC-AU] OLPC-AU revised release candidate

[Jerry Vonau]

Hi all:

Please do not use RC1, there was a typo that broke some the
customizations in the build. If you downloaded it I'm sorry for wasting
your bandwidth, there is a new image on the way soon[1]. There is one
additional feature to be tested:
* Firefox is remembering passwords [801]

Thanks for testing
Jerry
