On a related note:
While talking to some of the Fedora India guys in FOSS.in ins
Bangalore last week, I came to know about Kobold[1], a tool which
takes an ISO image on your hard disk and parallely writes the image to
all USB pen drives connected to the machine on which it is running.
This may be useful for distributing Sugar on a stick to anyone who
brings his/her pen drive in various events.
Thanks,
