Live image trisquel-sugar_3.0
You can download the (430MB) iso image from here:
Notes
To create a live USB disk with user data persistence, you can burn the image in a CD and use it to start a live session. Then plug the USB unit, open the terminal, and run "usb-creator".(usb-creator-gtk) A launcher application is coming.
The usb-creator helper is also included in the Trisquel 3 (and Ubuntu) desktop applications. If you use a different GNU/Linux distribution or Windows, you can use FUSBi instead.
You can now log out of your session and login into Sugar. If your computer is a LTSP server, it would be serving Sugar already.
Configure a Trisquel edu LTSP server
You can follow the instructions in the Trisquel wiki.

You can install Sugar with the above method, but using this repository line instead:
