Great! Thanks for the updates, S Page!<br><br>Michael, Scott,<br>I believe the incorrect warning message that you are trying to load a build that isn't secure on a secure machine has been a bug for the last couple of builds. I wrote it up: 7265<br>

</div>(I had updated my G1G1 to 703 a few weeks ago. For some reason<br>
installing the G1G1 activity pack from my USB flash drive didn't work<br>
for me and I had used Bert's script to install.)<br>

</div>D'oh, first time I didn't use the -f option. `olpc-update<br>
candidate-708` displayed<br>
<br>
Trying irsync_pristine update from<br>
rsync://<a href="http://updates.laptop.org/build-candidate-708" target="_blank">updates.laptop.org/build-candidate-708</a><br>

Verifying update.<br>

(Maybe that's why you said use -f.)<br>
<br>
Then it went on to<br>

==> Should update instructions suggest that users first stop running<br>
activities, or is this python "MemoryError" just an artifact of not<br>
using the -f "skip incremental update attempt" flag?<br>
<br>
Anyway, I retried using `olpc-update -f candidate-708` as instructed.<br>
It printed:<br>
<br>
WARNING: You seem to be attempting to download an unsigned<br>
development build, but you don't have a developer key. This will<br>
probably fail.<br>
<br>
==> Is that warning expected since you said "signed release candidate" ?<br>
<br>
but it updated fine anyway.<br>
<br>
My laptop restarted three times, the last one brought me into Sugar.<br>
<br>
Home view > little guy > About this XO displays<br>
Build update.1 708<br>
Firmware: Q2D16<br>
Serial Number: CSN748011C2<br>
<br>
<br>
==> Maybe "About this XO" should say "8.1.1" and/or "candidate" instead<br>
of "update.1" part, otherwise looks fine!<br>

</div>I reorganized it a bit to focus first on changes from Update.1, and<br>
tweaked other referenced pages.<br>
