This page is intended to give instructions on how to try Sugar in the absence of the OLPC XO-1 hardware.
Step 1. Determine which of the various methods of running Sugar meet your needs:
- LiveCD
- Suitable for trying Sugar without having to install anything software on your computer—just boot Sugar off of a CD or USB drive.
- Emulator
- QEMU or VMWare let you run Sugar in an emulator on your computer—you'll need to install an emulator from which you launch Sugar.
- Install Sugar
- If you are running one of the currently supported distributions, you can install Sugar using your systems standard package manager, e.g., Synaptic, apt-get, or yum.
- Build Sugar
- You can run sugar-jhbuild to build the complete Sugar environment on most GNU/Linux systems.
