 It does almost everything right, apparently, except that after restoring
 from the backup, it doesn't delete the backup file from the SD card.  This
 means that every subsequent reboot will re-restore the backup file and
 then power off the system.  It never actually lets the user boot, until
 they remove the SD card from the system.

 The olpc-auto script previously would allow you to keep the SD card in the
 system; when run, it noticed that no work needed doing, so it would just
 exit and the kernel would boot.

 (It may fail this way on USB too; the instructions say to remove the USB
 key at this point.
 But the SD card fits nicely inside the machine and there should be no need
 to remove it.  And this formerly worked.)

 B1, Q2C23y firmware, build 542.
