    I'm curious how everyone else is getting on. I followed the FAQ:

    https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/TestPlans/Fedora10_On_XO#Installing_your_SD_card

    and was able to get the XO to boot into Fedora (cute hotdog). But
    then I get a kernel warning on the Desktop:

    http://www.opennms.org/XO/XO-KernelFail.jpg

    Looking through /var/log/messages I don't see anything real useful -
    no panics or errors that stand out. The load is very high, with a 15
    minute load average near 8.

    I was curious if anyone else had managed to get things going a bit
    better, and if I needed to be using a different image, etc.


I was having similar issues. I added the persistent overlay and a swap partition and that helped a lot. It would lock up before and now it is slightly more usable. When I run top it reports about 85% idle on the cpu. The tips here

helped but didn't quite work I had to look here
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraLiveCD/USBHowTo#Errors_and_Solutions
to get it all working.

I'm going to try launching firefox now!

I added a 512M overlay, and it sped things up. I am seeing (based on eyeball and tzclock)

20 seconds to hotdog.
3 min 20 seconds to login page


As I mentioned in other emails
- I get the kernel panic
- I do get the occasional lockups
- I had to change my default font size from 201dpi to 96 dpi.
- I still see the invalid iomem size comment.


Qustion.. how do I boot to single user mode? I dont see the grub screen to play with
