<br> the base of the filesystem for the device, or, to /mnt/live (from<br><br> the perspective of a running LiveOS image).<br><br>2. Boot the USB stick into SoaS and insert a second USB device into<br><br> the computer running that SoaS image.<br>
<br>3. In the Terminal Activity of that running SoaS image, enter the<br><br> command,<br><br> /mnt/live/SugarClone<br><br>If there is more than one USB/SD storage device available, a menu of the devices will appear to allow you to select the target device.<br>
<br>The scripts will copy the currently running image to the target device. When that device is booted, a new, Sugar Learner sign-in will be triggered. The previously customized Journal and operating system will be present on the Sugar Clone image.<br>
<br>On a running LiveOS image, the root folder of the USB/SD device is<br><br>available at the /mnt/live mount point. The SugarClone script<br><br>can be obtained (assuming Internet connectivity) as follows:<br><br><br>
1. In the Terminal Activity, change the working directory:<br>
<br> cd /mnt/live<br><br>2. wget <a href="http://people.sugarlabs.org/fgrose/SugarClone">http://people.sugarlabs.org/fgrose/SugarClone</a><br><br>3. chmod +x SugarClone<br><br>at this point, you may simply execute<br><br>
