[Localization] [Server-devel] XS School Server Installation - No GUI

[Martin Langhoff]

Hi Chris, Gabriel!

Make sure you are installing XS-0.6 (the latest) and follow the
installation instructions at
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/XS_Installing_Software -- when you get to
the "What next?" section... you will have found your answer.

As Sameer hints, you'll interact with the XS management UI (which is
Moodle) from an XO.

cheers,
