[Sugar-devel] 0.92 Activity Testing

[Art Hunkins]

Thanks, Gonzalo. With this info I was able to install an OS13 image (or whatever you call it) to my XO-1 and test all my Activities (which were compatible with 0.92 as I had expected).

Thanks, too, to Tom Gilliard for your suggestions. I'm afraid, given my lack of Linux/Sugar knowledge, they mostly passed over my head.

I'm happy to report that (here in 0.92 on the XO-1) audio recording with Record-89 works fine. This, despite failing with SoaS and 0.90. Hopefully it will continue to work when a non-beta version of 0.92 (SoaS) emerges.

  You can test it in XO 1 or XO 1.75 with the last OLPC images http://wiki.laptop.org/go/11.2.0
  I think you can test it too with Fedora 15 alpha.

    I'd like to rephrase my question:

    Is there anywhere a Sugar 0.92-class .iso that I can install with Live USB Creator on a USB drive?

    I am looking to test my activities in 0.92.

    (If this is at all relevent, I cannot make a working stick from any of the recent nightly releases using the current (3.10.0) version of Live USB Creator.)

        I notice that all recent activity releases indicate compatibility with 0.92 Sugar.

        How can that be true if 0.92 is not yet released?

        I'd like to test my activities, and have assumed that maybe the latest nightly releases represent 0.92 (??). I also note that the "rawhide" folder in the nightly repository is unpopulated.

        I create my Sugars (SoaS) via the Live USB Creator, and the latest Windows version (3.10.0) does not work with these nightly releases (Live Creator only seems to handle final releases). Is there some other .iso (e.g., rawhide) that represents 0.92 that I can install on a USB stick with Live USB Creator?

        Confused.....


      here is transcript of a successful install I did today booted from a dd created USB to a 320GB external USB Drive.
