Hi Carlos, Thanks for the great questions. >Questions >1) When i take the image from this one and install it into another, will i >have two computers wchi are exactly the same? No. Each XO contains unique "manufacturing data", stored in a non-volatile memory which is separate from the main (1GB) non-volatile memory. Moreover, when you boot an XO, it runs some software which "dirties" the filesystem. You'd want to "clean" the filesystem by undoing some of these edits before you clone the image onto lots of other machines. >2) In order to do this process does it have to be into a "unblocked" XO or >with developer key? Because if that's the case, i can't do it since these >are the computers we're gonna use for deployment. a) Why do you want the computers to be locked? b) You can temporarily unlock the computers in at least two ways. c) We're designing some software changes over at http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Partial_key_autonomy which might make this easier for you to maintain. >3) Out of the topic question but do you know how can i change the default >page from the Browse activity? You need to edit the Browse source code here-ish: http://git.sugarlabs.org/projects/browse/repos/mainline/blobs/master/webactivity.py#line269 (i.e. search for "load_uri" in webactivity.py) >Thanks for your replies You're very welcome.
