<br>
Is this the appropriate place for the USB's created using the F11 net<br>
install?<br>

I had a long discussion about this last night on IRC. One opinion was<br>
that sugar on a stick ONLY applied to a image on a stick created by a<br>
Soas-strawberry.iso These have a compressed fs and overlay.<br>
<br>
* I believe that all forms of Sugar-desktop on a USB should be<br>
considered "Sugar on a Stick".<br>
*The USB.img files I am posting on <a href="http://people.sugarlabs.org/Tgillard/" target="_blank">http://people.sugarlabs.org/Tgillard/</a><br>
are USB's made with a LVN file structure by doing a Install from a F11<br>
net install CD directly to the USB.<br>
*The opensuse-edu images listed on the same page also make a file<br>
structure after being opened for the first time after being written to<br>
the USB with a dd command.<br>
*The VMware Appliances I am posting are also, in my opinion "Sugar on a<br>
Stick"<br>
*My USB's are made on a hp Pavillion Laptop (Vista) transferred to a<br>
Dell 520n running Ubuntu 9.04 for conversion to .img files and for<br>
duplication and uplinking to sunjammer.<br>
*The USB's run on the Vista Pavillion/EeePC1000HE (XP)/EeePC900<br>
-Wirelessly(Mandriva) so they are agnostic to OS. How do we categorize them?<br>
<br>
The question is: Do we allow all of these forms of Sugar-Desktop on a<br>
USB stick to be called "Sugar-on-a stick" ?<br>
<br>
If we do not then where do these alternate forms get listed on the wiki<br>
and what do we call them.?<br>
<br>
Thanks;<br>
