[Sugar-devel] Does the XO-duo boot into Sugar as well?

[James Cameron]

G'day Mike,

Thanks for your question.

I work for OLPC as an engineering contractor.

One Education is a different organisation to OLPC.  I do not work for
One Education except indirectly through OLPC.

The "XO-duo (Android)" is a product name given by One Education to the
OLPC XO-4 and a software bundle.

The XO-4 shown was manufactured by OLPC and supplied to One Education.
Based on the specifications, it is probably our SKU308 or SKU309.

The XO-4 continues to be manufactured by OLPC, and is available for
order, with minimum quantity restrictions.  Please write to
countries at laptop.org for details.

I have no details about the firmware, software, or security
configuration of the laptop on the One Education page you refer to.
Nor do I know if overseas orders are accepted, nor what the shipping
costs are.

Those questions should be directed to One Education, thanks.

However, in general, an XO-4 can be reflashed to boot either Fedora,
Sugar, Android, or a hybrid dual boot using the O game key.  The
degree of difficulty depends on the security configuration; SKU308 and
SKU309 were manufactured unlocked.
