I can get it to recognize the stick but when I try to boot from it, following the instructions from Apple Tech Support, it goes instead into OSX. The stick shows as a third drive on my desktop and I can open it and see that the files are there. The "read me" file comes up blank.</div> <div><br></div><div>I think someone mentioned having to use something they may have called a "virtual box" to get it to boot on the Mac. I hope someone can fill me in on how to do this. I want to be able to show it at the LAUSD InfoTech event at the LA Convention Center this Saturday. So, I do still have some time to work out the kinks.</div> <div><br></div><div>The Mac I am using is an Intel based MacBook so this should work. I just need to have the instructions!</div><div></div></div></blockquote></div></div><div><br>Hi, You might be able to boot using the boot helper CD. <a href="http://people.sugarlabs.org/sdz/soas-boot.iso" target="_blank">http://people.sugarlabs.org/sdz/soas-boot.iso</a><br> Hold down 'c' when booting to boot off the CD and it should recognize the USB stick and continue booting from there.<br><br>If that doesn't work you can try the VirtualBox instructions here: <a href="http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Sugar_on_a_Stick/VirtualBox" target="_blank">http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Sugar_on_a_Stick/VirtualBox</a><br> <br>Good Luck.<br><br>Dave<br> <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"><div><div><br></div><div>Thanks!</div><div><br></div> <font color="#888888"><div>Caryl</div></font></div> <br>_______________________________________________<br> IAEP -- It's An Education Project (not a laptop project!)<br> <a href="mailto:IAEP@lists.sugarlabs.org" target="_blank">IAEP@lists.sugarlabs.org</a><br> <a href="http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/iaep" target="_blank">http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/iaep</a><br></blockquote></div><font color="#888888"><br><br clear="all"><br>-- <br>Dave Bauer<br><a href="mailto:dave@solutiongrove.com" target="_blank">dave@solutiongrove.com</a><br> <a href="http://www.solutiongrove.com" target="_blank">http://www.solutiongrove.com</a><br> </font></div><br><br clear="all"><br>-- <br>Dave Bauer<br><a href="mailto:dave@solutiongrove.com">dave@solutiongrove.com</a><br><a href="http://www.solutiongrove.com">http://www.solutiongrove.com</a><br>
