#2981 closed defect (fixed)
Activation fails on emulators
Description
From email to devel@:
---
Trying to boot build 553 in a VirtualBox environment (testing fix in
[1]), I see a failure in the activation code (I'm copying this manually):
/antitheft.py, line 17, in run
from initutil import activate_fail
ImportError: cannot import name activate_fail
which suggests that even if I fix the error it's just going to fail
anyway, it's just not telling me nicely.
Any suggestions on how to get past this point while running on a virtual
machine? I've tried mapping a USB key into the VirtualBox client with a
build 553 upgrade/install image, but it didn't do the activation,
producing the same traceback.
Almost there, he thinks,

Should be in latest builds
Bypassing the initrd on boot is a temporary workaround.
olpcrd 0.20 fixes this problem. J5: can you include this in the next build?
