WARNING:
Save everything first that you need to restore because this involves formatting the SSD.

How to install:

1. Download the recovery imagefile found at the bottom of this page (336MB for Elonex, all current patches have been slipstreamed) and unzip it.

2. Format an SD card or USB Memory Drive to “FAT” or “FAT32″ (VEHO 4GB SDHC worked on Elonex ONEt+)

3. Copy the two recovery files: “uImage” + “Recovery.rec” to the SD
card or USB Memory Drive.

4. Plug the SD card or USB Memory Drive into your Little Linux Laptop
( no need to remove it, until restore is complete if step.7 successful)

5. Turn your Little Linux Laptop on.

6. Once the Power LED (Green) lights press the Fn + Shift + F1 keys at the same time, i.e. immediately after turning on your ONEt.

7. If it is successful, there will be a white screen. If so, release the three buttons. If you don’t see the white screen, try step 4-6
again.

8. Wait until the normal loading screen (the Elonex black screen)
appears.

9. Wait 5 seconds and turn your Little Linux Laptop off by pressing
and holding the power button until it shuts down.

10. Turn your Little Linux Laptop on again.

11. Once the loading screen (the Elonex black screen ) appears, press the “F3″ button and hold it.

12. If successful you will see the “Welcome To Begin Recovery the System” + MAC no. screen. Press “Enter” to continue.

13. You see the second screen. Press “Enter” to continue or press “Q” to exit.

15. You see the fourth screen. If you press “enter”, the system will be completely reformatted and recovered. All your stored information will be lost. In theory if you press [s], the system will only be re-installed and your stored information will be retained. This did not work for me, with additional programs installed it was necessary to reformat first.
Press “b” to return to the previous screen.

16. Your Little Linx Laptop will automatically reboot. (DON’T TURN IT OFF BEFORE IT REBOOTS) On the Elonex ONEt+ the progress is shown by dots on a line.
