but is the firmware an rpm?  I assumed it wasn't.

Hi Tim,

I'd first see if you can build an image with a stock configuration before you introduce any changes. I'd create a yum repo containing the rpm on the building box, next introduce that yum repo into olpc-os-builder with an entry in the [repos] section of the .ini file. ie:

custom_repo_1=1,xo1-fw,file:///</full/path/to/repo/>


After your changes run OOB and check the output/packages.txt to see which version was installed.

Jerry

given the potential for error, I re-downloaded the q2f199, and without changing name, copied it up to our boot directory.

Then when I tar-ed it all up, downloaded, the tar, expanded, I discovered that the presence of the bootfw.zip in the boot directory prevented the 4button load (finding the signed OS img using fs.zip or fs0.zip) from working.

The observation was that It didn't find the image after 4 button startup. Then moved /boot/bootfw.zip to /boot/bootfw.zip.gh, and the img was loaded.

I went part way down the road of trying to bundle q2f19 into 21021o0.img, but stopped because I hoped the approach you tried would work.

http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Updating_the_XO#Firmware says the os image includes firmware. so I installed olpc-os-builder and had a look at olpc-os-12.1.0-xo1.ini, but I don’t see how to rebuild with the later firmware.
