If you have Oracle VirtualBox [2] installed:<br>
Click on the ova icon for:<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://people.sugarlabs.org/Tgillard/sugar_trisquel_6.ova">http://people.sugarlabs.org/Tgillard/sugar_trisquel_6.ova</a> (as an
example) [1][3]<br>
And the file will be imported into VirtualBox<br>
Note:<br>
You can also save this VM as a desktop shortcut from the VirtualBox
top menu.<br>
"Machine/Create Shortcut on Desktop"<br>

<div>I can think of a couple of approaches</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>* Get Sugar running well on the
CuBox-i. Find budget to buy a few of those
to distribute to chosen journalist and
teachers. Try to partner with SolidRun to
offer Sugar as an out-of-the-box
installation option.<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>* Make it easy to run Sugar inside
VirtualBox on Windows and OS X. Without
having investigated too deeply it seems that
a two step process would be both
realistically implementable and easy enough
for the user</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>1 Install virtualbox</div>
<div>2 Install a Sugar application (which
would take care of setting up the
appliance).</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thoughts? Other ideas? If we can agree on
one or two concrete, realistic approaches, I
think we can at least attempt to get them
done for 3.102.</div>
