Announcing  2 Items

I took advantage of the lack of activity on the wiki on Dec 24-25 to 
work on the following:

1-) Introduction to the sugar interface.iso [1]

A set of Annotated screen shots as Web Page.html files with the 
accompanying folder containing the files for the .html
  Intended to be run from a 2nd USB (or CD) where there is NO Internet 
Connection Available.

    * Contents:

    ReadMeFirst.txt 
    Firefox-6-xo - web browser 
    Introduction_to_Sugar_Interface.html 
    Connecting_to_the_Internet.html 
    Drag-Drop.html 
    How_to_use_IRC.html 
    How_to_use_Chat.html 
    Terminal.html - A downloaded .html from Floss Manuals
    <http://en.flossmanuals.net/terminal/Floss> 

    * Firefox-6.xo installed from this USB-stick has been successfully
      tested viewing the .html web pages on the USB-stick.

    a G1G1 XO-1 running os508dx - (Dextrose2)

    release 2 (no other browser works on this Distro) 


2-) Set up MacBook to Open items automatically when you log in [2]

Make New Virtual Appliance for USB-stick containing .vdi files*
When the MacBook is powered on, it will boot up in VirtualBox pointed at 
this Virtual Appliance on the USB-stick
   This Procedure can be used on multiple Macs to use the same USB-stick 
containing the Virtual Appliance of Sugar.

   *The test stick contains  a (Persistent) Trisquel-5.0-sugar 
VirtualBox install, hard drive (.vdi files), copied to the USB-stick.
          /home/(user)/VirtualBox VMs/ (copy all three files to USB-stick)
