[olpc-community-support] Pepper Issue

[y221]

I recently received a give one get one XO for my daughter. I installed 
the Pepper OS from their site and figured out that under Pepper the 
keyboard and trackpad do not work. So, by holding down the X and the 
check buttons while powering on I have tried to reimage the machine. 
However during the reimage process the XO starts Pepper part way 
through. So I tried using a USB drive and then a SD card to load a 
fresh image from. However when I hold down the O key I just get a sad 
face and a message telling me that the boot failed and the machine 
powers down. How the heck can I get my little girl's XO back up and 
running again?
