Just got a chance to burn this SoaS beta onto a USB drive (the Sugar branded one). Here are photos (ones with black background) of it running on an Intel Classmate 3: <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/curiouslee/sets/72157613785006745/">http://www.flickr.com/photos/curiouslee/sets/72157613785006745/</a> So far: No sound from Speak. Playing OGG file produces some popping sounds. Zoom in doesn't work on Image Viewer. No wifi APs visible in Neighborhood.

The link is here: <a href="http://download.sugarlabs.org/soas/releases/soas-beta.iso" target="_blank">http://download.sugarlabs.org/soas/releases/soas-beta.iso</a> Secondly, we've a boot helper now based on F11 ready! So if your BIOS doesn't support booting from an USB key, you can just download this additional iso, burn it to a CD and boot from it while having your USB key plugged in: <a href="http://people.sugarlabs.org/sdz/soas-boot.iso" target="_blank">http://people.sugarlabs.org/sdz/soas-boot.iso</a> Note that if you're going to use the boot helper, your USB key (or other device) needs to be named FEDORA. This is really a requirement! Both the liveusb-creator and the livecd-iso-to-disk script support this now. The latter one changes this automatically when being run with the --format argument (this removes all your data on the key, though). You can grab a new version here: <a href="http://people.sugarlabs.org/sdz/livecd-iso-to-disk.sh" target="_blank">http://people.sugarlabs.org/sdz/livecd-iso-to-disk.sh</a> Please test this combination, as it's an important part to get SoaS working on older hardware! Finally, if somebody could create a CD label for the boot helper disk, this would be really great! Thanks and happy testing! --Sebastian _______________________________________________ IAEP -- It's An Education Project (not a laptop project!) <a href="mailto:IAEP@lists.sugarlabs.org">IAEP@lists.sugarlabs.org</a> <a href="http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/iaep" target="_blank">http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/iaep</a> </blockquote></div>
