[Sugar-devel] SOAS 2 problems

[David Leeming]

Hi All

I am in Tuvalu and have been trying Blueberry with and without boot helper on a good PC desktop at our OLPC trial startup workshop. 

Pleased to say it works without the boot helper CD.

The issue is definitely the boot helper. I encourage that a solution is found because the people for whom this is targeted should be able to just plug and play and not have to mess around with hard drive settings in BIOS. (I had to select select USB:Verbatim Storage as 1st hard drive). Most will therefore need a boot helper CD.
David

Oops:

<airlied> bernie: the new kernel might be a better bet also
<airlied> bernie: from koji for F12

Well, maybe not too hard after all. Try:

 sudo yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update kernel


You can also meet airlied and agd5f on #xorg-devel or on #fedora-devel,
as you can see they're very nice and helpful.
