Line 12: − − ==VirtualBox appliance derived from SoaS Mirabelle== − : updated 13 Oct 2010 − − This appliance has a traditional, non-compressed filesystem and was built by using [[Sugar on a Stick/ZyX-LiveInstaller|ZyX-LiveInstaller]] on a SoaS Mirabelle image. (It does not simulate the stock ''Sugar on a Stick'' image with its [[LiveOS image]] with a compressed filesystem, [[wikipedia:SquashFS|SquashFS]], for the operating system files and an optional overlay and home folder for persistence.) − − These Activities have been updated: Physics-6, Record-79, Write-70, Turtle Art-99 − − Download these 3 files: − For the first 2 files, you may need to right click and select 'Save link as...' or 'Save Target As...' because they open directly into the browser. − − http://people.sugarlabs.org/Tgillard/Soas-v3-Mirabelle-zyx.mf − − http://people.sugarlabs.org/Tgillard/Soas-v3-Mirabelle-zyx.ovf − − http://people.sugarlabs.org/Tgillard/soas-v3-Mirabelle.vmdk − − * Start VirtualBox − * In the top-left corner of the application menu bar: − *: File -> Import Appliance... − *: '''Note: The Import Option is not available on the OSE version of VirtualBox.''' − ::Import option is available in VirtualBox 4.0.4 (which is ose) − * Click the <Choose...> button to find the 3 downloaded files. − *: select: soas-v3-Mirabelle-zyx.ovf − *: then click 'Next' − * '''Appliance Import Settings''' window appears: − * Double click on the '''Guest OS Type''' row and the right column is a dropdown selection panel. Change the value to OS: Linux Version: Fedora (from Other/unknown) − * Agree to GPL license and click the 'Finish' button. − * The Import process progress meter will appear, and then the new virtual machine named '''soas-v3-Mirabelle-zyx2''' will appear in your VirtualBox virtual machine list. − * Click the start button or double click the machine name to start your virtual machine with Sugar. − ** The first boot experience (of selecting a learner name and color set) can be recreated by erasing the /user/liveuser/.sugar/default/owner.key & .../owner.key.pub files from this machine before distribution. − ** Can the default window size be set to simulate an XO at 832x624 pixels? Do we have a license to distribute images with Guest Additions installed? − ** I found a base memory setting of 802 MB RAM. This may be too high for older computers. --[[User:FGrose|FGrose]] 13:02, 14 October 2010 (EDT) − You may create you own virtual machine beginning with an .iso image of Sugar on a Stick − − * Download http://spins.fedoraproject.org/soas/#downloads − * If your hardware is 64-bit capable, chose a 64-bit version.
