Great to see the hive of activity to get this out stable and usable with features. I
tried two installation on a XO 1.75 and they went smoothly - not sure why on 2 occassions
the XOs went "blank/dark" before reaching final stage that installation is
successful.
Would try XO 1.0 and 1.5 and 1.75 (with a fast SD card instead) later. Don't
have XO-4 for testing :-(
Any good suggestion as to what external USB would fit well for external storage
as I am getting one 1TB soon?
Also what about supporting plug & play AP access with a USB Wireless N USB
Adaptor? I had a RPi with 16G Khan Academy and wireless assess on a cheap Adaptor
is a breeze. Would love to have less wires - minus the USB-Ethernet adaptor and
cables into an external AP.
Pity I could not join for chat. My best wishes to you all hackers!
Cheers

Now we're getting towards the halfway point of our community's 4th Hack
Sprint outside Toronto here ( photos @

) hoping for testers across XO-1 (maybe!), XO-1.5, XO-1.75 and XO-4 --
as things become much more reliable in coming weeks.
I've got XO-4s. I can test with. I'll be happy to try it if things
are far enough along.
Thanks Richard and All joining our community calls today from several
continents:
While many XSCE installs have worked on XO-1.75 and XO-4 today, rigorous
testing is precisely what we need! Start here and please tell us your
own needs en route:
http://schoolserver.org/0.3
Caveat: XO-1 and XO-1.5 installs definitely now work "in the lab" (with
some rough edges on XO-1 naturally) but truthfullly can't be supported
until more testers hopefully appear =)
Great news is we're currently ahead of scheduled in our projected
timeline here:
May 8th to 13 Sprint Toronto
May 13 Feature Freeze and alpha release
May 19 beta release
May 26 Final release
/Huge thanks to the many talented volunteers making the big trek
traveling multiple days to reach Toronto from around North America!!/
