Write image to microSD card using [https://github.com/MartinBriza/MediaWriter/releases Fedora Media Writer] (FMW), which is available for Mac OS X, Microsoft Windows, Fedora Linux, and Ubuntu Linux ("...as a flatpak (apt install flatpak), or from source.")
 
Here are the test steps;

Fedora SoaS does not include wireless firmware, see the [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/Raspberry_Pi?rd=Raspberry_Pi#Wifi: FAQ] for reason and a fix.  The fix can be applied in sugar terminal;
sudo curl <nowiki>https://raw.githubusercontent.com/RPi-Distro/firmware-nonfree/master/brcm80211/brcm/brcmfmac43430-sdio.txt</nowiki> -o /lib/firmware/brcm/brcmfmac43430-sdio.txt
 
My Settings, Network, Collaboration Server can be set to jabber.sugarlabs.org.  The default in Sugar 0.110 is not to use jabber.sugarlabs.org unless configured.  When jabber.sugarlabs.org server is not running, please write to systems@lists.sugarlabs.org to ask for help.
