The lattice ideals of a Boolean algebra form a frame under inclusion. Meets are intersections and joins are ideals generated by unions. A complemented ideal is principal: if $I\vee J=B$ and $I\cap J=\{0\}$, choose $b\in I,c\in J$ with $b\vee c=1$; then $c=\neg b$ and $I=\downarrow b$. This ideal frame defines an extremally disconnected locale exactly when $B$ is complete.

The Booleanization of a locale is the sublocale with double-negation nucleus. A flat sublocale has a nucleus preserving finite joins, equivalently its fixed-element set is closed under ambient finite joins. For completeness, if a nucleus preserves finite joins then its fixed points are closed under them. Conversely, if fixed points are closed under joins, $j(a)\vee j(b)$ is fixed and bounds $a\vee b$, giving $j(a\vee b)\le j(a)\vee j(b)$; monotonicity gives equality, and preservation of $0$ is precisely $j(0)=0$. Since $\neg \neg 0=0$, condition (iv) is exactly (iii). Together the preceding implications prove all four characterizations of an extremally disconnected locale.
