It is all carefully described in the Installation section of the link above. Please read that, and if you have any further questions, please ask.

I have installed os14 on my XO 1.75 firmware is bundled with releases, and when it is, it will be installed automatically when you install the release. that's fine for many, many people. in this case, it will always upgrade, and never downgrade. automatic installation will never take you "backwards". you can also install firmware manually: put the .rom file on a USB stick, and type "flash u:\file.rom" at the 'ok' prompt. you might do this to help with testing, or because you know that the firmware fixes a known problem you're experiencing. when installing manually, you can do a downgrade. paul =- paul fox, p...@laptop.org ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel

Announcing Q4D17 for XO-1.75
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/OLPC_Firmware_q4d17 - add support for different RAM chips, - display the operating CPU core frequency instead of the CPU configured maximum, - revert ASIX USB ethernet physical interface power down changes as they are affecting mass production timing, - a fix for usage of USB hubs and USB FLASH drives with embedded hubs, - a fix to telnetd vocabulary also seen when using "select /wlan", - probe all USB ports during USB tests, and avoid the fisheye test since it requires external instruments. -- James Cameron http://quozl.linux.org.au/ ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
