[Sugar-devel] [IAEP] soas live cd on MacBook? How?

[Caroline Meeks]

Hi Caryl,

How is it going?

I know of two potentail issues.

1. Getting the right materials. At sugar camp we found that the USB created
on the macbook was not working, only a PC created USB seemed to work. Plus
you need both the USB and the boot helper.

2. some macbooks have a bug, when you boot everything goes fine through most
of the boot and just when you are about to get to Sugar you get a mostly
black screen with a sqiggle in the middle.

Where are you at? I especially need people with problem #2 because I don't
have a test machine that shows it and its a show stopper for me for all work
in Boston Public Schools because their macbooks have this issue.

Thanks,
Caroline
