[K12OSN] FC3 & 4.2

[Ascension Tech]

Hey Eric,
This is awesome! I am having some sound trouble though.  It works once
on the terminals once but after restarting the the
application(gcompris) again it doesn't work. I'm using esd.   I'm
running 4.2-beta2 by the way.  And also once and awhile I get a
"Failed to mount root directory via NFS" error during boot.  What'd ya
think?

Thanks,
Peter
