With a the "game keys" depressed I see that the XO is looking for
http://172.18.0.1/fs.zip, I assume that is the path for the
staging/upgrade images to be downloaded and installed from? If so, I
should be able to dump the image (fs.zip and version.img) that I want to
load into /docroot of the schoolsever and the XO should be updated
automatically?
