[Sugar-devel] Reminder please how to flash XO-1 NAND with soas05xo.iso

[Sean DALY]

I found this post by Tomeu with instructions:
http://lists.sugarlabs.org/archive/sugar-devel/2009-March/012521.html

I burned the ISO file to a CD and found the livecd-iso-to-xo script on it.

I will generate the .img and .crc files, if that works I will update
the wiki with the step-by-step procedure.

thanks

Sean
