|valign=top|A frequent request we received concerned a means of installing Sugar to a hard disk.
We teamed up with the '''zyx-liveinstaller''' developer in order to provide:

* seamless installation of your personalized environment onto your computer's hard disk;
* it saves any changes that you made to your Sugar on a Stick system;
* and the installation does not even require a reboot.
