At home, its about 68 F (20 C). My wife won't let me use the oven ;-) I ran it all night and it stays mildly warm. I need to get a IR thermometer or some such contraption to measure external body temp. Will it now be part of your test group's setup? ;-) Yes. I tested it with 5 XOs, but would love to test it with our entire OLPC-SF group (typically 25 XOs). We do have 10 XOs collected/bought thus far for Maroantsetra, Madagascar. Those + mine + a few borrowed from here and there should do the trick. BTW, I installed Munin (http://munin.projects.linpro.no/) on it (additional 4.5MB) to monitor long term health. Any +/- on that package?

I tried the mkusbinstall script. It works. Installing from USB is another matter. It chokes initially when looking for ks.cfg as the install documentation suggests.

Yea, at the boot prompt remove the method= part, you will have to manually select the hard-drive install method, once in anaconda. If you want to have an auto select install, then the patches I posted links to previously for anaconda would need to be implemented. Just wondering what are you installing the XS onto, an XO?

The OLPC web-based git interface was changed, due to security holes in the previous one. Unfortunately, links into it still haven't been changed.
