NANDblaster for 13.2.0

[James Cameron]

G'day,

NANDblaster is a way to install the operating system on many laptops
at once.  One laptop transmits the data, and each of the other laptops
receives it.

Up until 13.2.0-12 our NANDblaster did not work.  We had broken it, sorry.

This is fixed now for the next build, or the firmware can be upgraded:

http://wiki.laptop.org/go/OLPC_Firmware_q2f19 for XO-1
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/OLPC_Firmware_q3c16 for XO-1.5
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/OLPC_Firmware_q4d34 for XO-1.75
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/OLPC_Firmware_q7b37 for XO-4

Further documentation can be found here:

Note a strange restriction; a laptop will joyfully install an
operating system from another laptop, even if it is not compatible.
e.g. an XO-1.5 build on an XO-1.75 or vice versa.  Have to take care
not to mix laptop models at this stage.  See the above Wiki page for
the subtleties.
