Thanks for the info Ricardo.

Actually it's quite impressive how much does work. Many apps 
(Measure, Terminal, Piper, Calculator, Analyze, Memory, etc.) start, 
function, and stop -- slowly but without obvious error.

Record gets to a certain point and hang with a green screen of death.

EToys starts for a while and then just quietly goes away.

Browse operates but then gets quite sluggish.

I was just able to use Browse to find Implode. I downloaded it and 
ran it from Browse -- after quite a while both Browse and Implode 
were no longer active but I can then start and run Implode from Sugar.

Here's what the boot directory on the USB Flash stick I was using to 
update the B2-7 XO looks like now:

[/Volumes/OLPC1]$ ls -l boot
total 609040
-rwxrwxrwx   1 stephen  stephen      17239 Oct 23 13:05 olpc.fth
-rwxrwxrwx   1 stephen  stephen      21069 Jan  2 16:19 os656.crc
-rwxrwxrwx   1 stephen  stephen  306839552 Jan  2 16:19 os656.img
-rwxrwxrwx   1 stephen  stephen    1048576 Feb  2 16:39 q2d12.rom
-rwxrwxrwx   1 stephen  stephen    1559984 Oct 23 13:01 usbupgos.img
-rwxrwxrwx   1 stephen  stephen    2333277 Oct 23 13:01 usbupgrd.img

With regard to build406.16. Can I just replace os656.crc and 
os656.img in the boot dir on my USB flash stick with os406.icrc and 
os406.img and startup with it?

Will build406.16 work with q2d12?
