[Sugar-devel] [XO-1 FIRMWARE UPGRADE] Unable to find host error and 404 error

[Samuel Greenfeld]

As the instructions say, the string VERSION needs to be replaced with the
version of firmware you wish to download.

In any case if you are using a reasonably current OLPC release (12.1.0 or
13.1.0) you should not have to worry about manually upgrading the
firmware.  Most XO laptop images contain a copy of the firmware they were
designed to be used with, and can automatically upgrade to it given
external power and a reasonably charged battery.
