[OLPC-SF] Sugar update procedure question

[Tom Wadbrook]

Hi All,
 
A group of people here at Drew School is getting ready to return to the village of Keur Sadaro in Senegal, where we have a small deployment of about 25 XOs that we set up last summer. I'm trying to get them ready to update the laptops, and want to prep some USB sticks for them to take with an image already loaded on them. The latest instructions that I can find for doing this seem to suggest that we can't do it without the developer keys, which will be next to impossible to get before they leave (in a week). I'm gleaning this from here: http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Talk:Downloads#Upgrade_an_XO-1_to_Sugar_0.84_with_Fedora_11_and_Gnome
(in the section titled Updating an XO-1 to Sugar 0.84 with Fedora and Gnome.
 
Am I looking at the correct procedures? Is there an alternative that doesn't require developer keys? If anyone has any guidance on the process, with the understanding that I'm trying to hand over instructions to a group of non-technical teachers who have very little experience with Sugar and the XOs, please let me know...
 
Thanks
Tom
