Hello,

I have my 4GB SanDisk with the Fedora live, I've copied the developer
key to /security/develop.sig.

Upon booting the XO, I get

	Type the Esc key to interrupt automatic startup
	SDHCI: Card didn't power up after 1 second
	Boot device: /sd/disk:\boot\olpc.fth  Arguments:
	Boot device: /sd/disk:\syslinux\vmlinuz0  Arguments: root=UUID=6462-3436 riitfstype=vfat rw liveimg overlay=UUID=6462-3436 quiet  rhgb  persistenthome=mtd0 reset_overlay
	SDHCI: Card didn't power up after 1 second
	<buffer at ffb676d0>:33:
	Can't open boot device

Then I do

	dir sd:\boot

on the ok prompt, the first attempts returns

	SDHCI: Card didn't power up after 1 second
	Can't open directory

but when I rerun the dir command, I get the /boot listing (showing
OLPC.FTH there). So the XO seems to be able to talk to the SD card,
at least somehow.

When I try

	boot sd:\boot\olpc.fth

I get

	Boot device: /sd/disk:\boot\olpc.fth  Arguments: root=UUID=6462-3436 riitfstype=vfat rw liveimg overlay=UUID=6462-3436 quiet  rhgb  persistenthome=mtd0 reset_overlay
	SDHCI: Card didn't power up after 1 second

	Can't open boot device

and when I do it again I get

	Boot device: /sd/disk:\boot\olpc.fth  Arguments: root=UUID=6462-3436 riitfstype=vfat rw liveimg overlay=UUID=6462-3436 quiet  rhgb  persistenthome=mtd0 reset_overlay
	<buffer at ffb651d8>:2: Can't find word to replace

but when I do just

	boot

Fedora starts to boot.

Is the

	SDHCI: Card didn't power up after 1 second

message an expected thing?
