Re: [OLPC-AU] OLPC-AU release candidate RC3 (au867)
Are you going to have a test day for this image? I'm working in Melbourne CBD now, and although I have XO-1's, I'd be happy to help test the image if you're going to have a day I can come in and bash away at the things that I know bug me about some of the trial builds. Andrew Melbourne testing group meets on the third Saturday of every month http://wiki.laptop.org/go/MelbourneXOClub We are testing au868 tomorrow.

Re: OLPC-AU release candidate RC3 (au867)
The Melbourne XO Club meets on 16 July, as part of the LUV Beginners' Workshop: http://lists.luv.asn.au/wws/arc/luv-announce/2011-07/msg1.html http://luv.asn.au/2011/07/16 We need to have a release out by 25 July, which is the start of Term 3 in Northern Territory schools. This release won't be directly available for XO-1s (we're phasing those out). You can install our last (and latest stable) release (10.1.3-au2) and run the upgrade routine. Your feedback on this would be very valuable, as this is our intended method of getting our XO-1s onto 10.1.3-au3. Installing 10.1.3-au2[0] can be done by directly writing the image to the XO, or through our XO-AU USB 2[1]. Once your XO is flashed and working, you can run the upgrade routine as already outlined. To repeat: 1. extract the ZIP file[3] to a USB drive 2. plug into the XO 3. turn on Once the upgrade stick verifies that you have a 10.1.3-au release installed, it will upgrade the OS to 10.1.3-au3.

Hi Andrew We will be testing au867 http://build.laptop.org.au/xo/10.1.3/xo-1.5/RC3/. If you want to join us virtually, we (Auckland testing) meet Saturdays at 11am (well, 11:30am by the time we set up) NZ time. We are on IRC freenode and could test together communicating on #olpc-au if you like.

The RC (36.1MB) is available at https://dev.laptop.org.au/projects/xo-au-usb/repository/revisions/delta/changes/key/delta.zip Instructions are simple: 1. extract the ZIP file to a USB drive 2. plug into the XO 3. turn on If you want the firmware to upgrade, you'll also need the XO plugged into mains power with a full battery.
