It's worth noting that half the battle can be won by overriding the following XO-1 specific line in OLPC OS Builder's kspost.50.xo1-tweaks.inc:
gconftool-2 --direct --config-source xml:readwrite:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults --type bool --set /desktop/sugar/network/adhoc false Setting this to "true", or letting it default to such will show the Ad-hoc networks by default on XO-1. It also will cause XO-1's to default to Ad-hoc if no preferred network is found. The mesh networks will still be there for manual use; but right now they seem semi-broken anyway on 12.1.0 as we attempt to connect to "Mesh Network 0" and don't set a channel on the Interface.
