Purpose

You want to hack sugar. You don't want to fuss around. You want sugar-chroot.

Usage

As excerpted from the README:

sugar-chroot consists of simple scripts. Download and unpack them like so:

NV=sugar-chroot-0.1
curl http://dev.laptop.org/~mstone/releases/SOURCES/$NV.tar.xz | tar Zxf $NV.tar.xz
cd $NV

To use them, pick a supported distro:

DISTRO=debian
DISTRO=fedora

To configure:

echo $DISTRO > conf/distro
$EDITOR conf/$DISTRO.mk

Then run

sudo make r/distro

to install your chroot.
