[OLPC-devel] LinuxBIOS success

[Jim Gettys]

I'd like to see some further testing in the morning before we pull the
trigger for mass adoption, and I'd like to compare notes with Chris on
the driver problems being seen on LB (e.g. wireless).

You are welcome to get a few brave souls to be pioneers, to help shake
down the instructions.
                             Regards,
                                - Jim
