Other ways to get Sugar on your Mac
Sugar on a Stick loaded USB devices should run on Intel Macs.
Follow these instructions every time you wish to use your Sugar on a Stick device on an intel Mac:
- Boot the Mac with the boot-helper CD
- interrupt the boot sequence
- edit the kernel parameters
vmlinuz0 initrd=initrd0.img root=LABEL=FEDORA rootfstype=iso9660 rw liveimg overlay=LABEL=soas-2-blueberry quiet rhgb selinux=0
- continue the boot.
You can create a Sugar on a Stick device with a Mac. However, to save the Journal you must create your stick on a PC or Linux machine: Instructions for Windows and Linux
- Download the boot helper from: http://download.sugarlabs.org/soas/releases/soas-boot.iso
- Put in the boot-helper CD
- Plug in the USB
- Turn on the Mac
- At the chime press the "C" key
The Mac should boot first from the CD then from the USB device. As of 12 April 2009, this is experimental. Let us know what results you get.
