Note: my XO-1 has build 653 of the OLPC software installed. It will take a while to start the first time as it completes its installation but it will be faster on subsequent starts. You can now start by typing 'lyx' then pressing the enter key.Return to being a normal user by typing in the command exit and pressing the enter key inside a terminal activity.Wait until the screen displays 'Complete!'.During installation you will get warnings of the form 'install-info: No such file or directory for /usr/share/info/.' These are of no consequence, being caused by the XO-1 not creating documentation directories to conserve flash memory. This will take time (an hour in my case).
