<DIV><BR></DIV>This is an example of a dd writable SoaS-v2.img file which
produces a fully functional Conventional install on a USB. This is equivalent
to a liveinst install to USB.[1]

alternative to the currently used live USB SoaS filesystems with their

line, rather from a obscure liveinst command in terminal.<BR></LI></UL><BR>[1]

So there's no rest for the wicked.... its time to think about what you
would like to develop for SoaS v7. I know upstream is all very busy
already.... the sugar team are full pelt into the conversion of sugar
to gtk3 and PyGI and there's all sorts of fun stuff going into
Fedora... so what do you want?
Peter
