Boot Options
  • Anaconda boot options modified for Fedora 17
  • Anaconda memory requirements for Fedora 17 (08 June 2012)
    "We dropped the requirement to 512 MB. Also the 'nomemcheck' parameter was added to disable the minimum check if people really want to try installing with 384 MB or 256 MB."

Sugar Learning Environment

packaged in Fedora
  • From the Applications -> Add/Remove Software app, search for Sugar.
  • Among all the packaged Activities select,
XO buddy.png The emulator for the Sugar Learning Environment

and any or all of the Activities.
Sugar will be available in your Applications -> Education grid.
