<br>
It seems the kickstart file I use installed the write activity via rpm.<br>
I don&#39;t know if this is possible from a usb stick but it might be worth<br>
a try.<br>
<br>
Can you try to remove the rpm by doing<br>
<br>
rpm -e sugar-write<br>
<br>
and then try to install the activity ?<br>
<br>
Aleksey pointed me to recent changes to the kickstart files which allow<br>
one to specify the versions of the activities compatible with sugar<br>
0.84.<br>
<br>
I will have a new spin out with the problem hopefully corrected soon.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>

&gt; I tried to do just that. I cannot erase the version of Write that&#39;s<br>
&gt; there, and I cannot install the new one. It downloads just fine and<br>
&gt; appears in the Journal, but will not install.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Any ideas?<br>

&gt;         You should be able to take your master stick, delete Write,<br>
&gt;         goto the Activities.sl.o, download the correct version and all<br>
&gt;         should be well, at least for write.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt;         I haven&#39;t actually heard from Ham yet, there is a major flood<br>
&gt;         in his area so there maybe a delay.<br>

&gt;                                 Write-63 was the last version<br>
&gt;                                 compatible with Sugar 0.84.x. I<br>
