You can check in a couple of ways:

* Run "rpm -q bootfw" while booted
* Look at http://build.laptop.org/10.1.2/xo-1.5/os852/os852.packages.txt,
  which says "bootfw-q3a48-1.unsigned.i386"

So, the update system works fine, but at the time of os852 release,
q3a48 was the latest OFW release.

- Chris.
