Sucessfully copies the USB stick! this is an exact copy and boot and runs well.<br>

Just a word of caution: Because it's an exact copy, it will duplicate your "identity" as well if you've ever logged in to Sugar and entered your name before on the source USB stick. You will need to remove some files in ~/.sugar in order for collaboration to work properly in that case.</div>
