[Sugar-devel] Fwd: [Question #81566]: Can't boot MacBooks at GPAfrom CD + USB

[Art Hunkins]

FWIW, on a WinXP system of mine, a helper CD I made and booted from, completely ignored my SoaS and booted into Windows.

Not very encouraging. I'm finding that quite a few systems I have around here don't have a USB boot option. I've a feeling that most systems more than 4 years old or so fit into this category.

  Has anyone seen a "Not Responding" error when booting with a CD helper?


  Also, I'm trying out the LaunchPad Questions functionality to see if this could be a front door where people put in various issues then we triage them to bugs/FAQs etc.

  I've been able to boot with a CD and USB other macbooks, such as those at LGF. I've never seen this error before.

  Anurag is going to try a Sugar and Fedora CD tomorrow.
