This is an example of a dd writable SoaS-v2.img file which produces a 
fully functional Conventional install on a USB. This is equivalent to a 
liveinst install to USB.[1]

    It was first suggested by bernie [2] in early 2010 as a better
    alternative to the currently used live USB SoaS filesystems with
    their fragile and limited sized overlay, 

    * This functionality is expected to be included in fedora 17
      liveinst (Anaconda)
    * It would be even nicer to be able to create and install to USB,
      the Soas-v7.img file directly from the first sugar boot screen as
      a third option line, rather from a obscure liveinst command in
      terminal.
