   −
* The openSUSE version is a .raw image that is burned to a stick by the dd command. It creates a usb stick that boots sugar-desktop with 55 applications.
+
* The openSUSE version is a clicfs "dual mode" image that is burned to a stick by the dd command.
 
+
* If just dd is used, creates a CD image on a USB. (Useful for Netbooks with no CD Drive)
* '''This is a persistent live image on a stick''' (a file system is created on the stick on first boot)
+
* fdisk can create a persistent 2nd partition (see below)

The resulting USB/SD has not got persistence. It is equivalent to Booting from the CD

The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 3824.
 +
There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,
 +
and could in certain setups cause problems with:
 +
1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO)
 +
2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs
 +
  (e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)
