[Sugar-devel] Read Only ? (Fedora-14-i686-Live-SoaS)

[Thomas C Gilliard]

Look at:
http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Sugar_on_a_Stick/Installation

1-) Look at section:
Burn a CD-ROM disc, then run the script, livecd-iso-to-disk

2-) or use the .iso file:
*
*I use for a 4 Gb USB: 
./livecd-iso-to-disk  --format --reset-mbr --overlay-size-mb 1200 
/home/(user)/Desktop/xxxxxxx.iso /dev/sd(x)

use --overlay-size-mb 800 for 2GB USB >(this line sets the persistence 
file where changes are stored)

Format your USB as fat16 or 32 with label=FEDORA (CAPS) boot flag set 
with gparted first.
.iso file and script are located on desktop in this example.

Script:
http://download.sugarlabs.org/soas/releases/livecd-iso-to-disk.sh
 make it executable (Properties/Permissions/[x]executable)/
