I'm curious how everyone else is getting on. I followed the FAQ:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/TestPlans/Fedora10_On_XO#Installing_your_SD_card

and was able to get the XO to boot into Fedora (cute hotdog). But then I get a kernel warning on the Desktop:

Looking through /var/log/messages I don't see anything real useful - no panics or errors that stand out. The load is very high, with a 15 minute load average near 8.

I was curious if anyone else had managed to get things going a bit better, and if I needed to be using a different image, etc.

I was having similar issues. I added the persistent overlay and a swap partition and that helped a lot. It would lock up before and now it is slightly more usable. When I run top it reports about 85% idle on the cpu. The tips here

helped but didn't quite work I had to look here

to get it all working.

I'm going to try launching firefox now!
