Changes

* ZyX-LiveInstaller allows you to install SoaS when it is already running '''from''' either a LiveUSB device or LiveCD media '''to''' a system or external disk.  This results in what is considered a traditional operating system installation on disk (or USB-Stick/SD-Card).

* NOTE: this is NOT a method to create a SugarOnAStick (LiveUSB).

* note: this is *not* a method to create a SugarOnAStick (LiveUSB).  Though you can install to an external usb drive/stick, resulting in an installation that very similarly boots your system to the Sugar UI.  The difference is that the resulting system is not a 'Live' system.  This means that it uses a normal filesystem, instead of a compressed read-only filesystem with a read-write snapshot/overlay above, as a 'LiveUSB' does.  

* IMPORTANT WARNING: understand that this is a fairly new piece of open source software, that will overwrite entire partitions or disks ** as well as your bootloader ** during installation.  In this release of SoaS, it is intended only for users that are familiar with the risks and possible complications of installing a Linux distribution to system disk.

::* you will need at least a single partition for the root filesystem, that is greater than 2GB.  Some disks labeled and sold as 2GB may not be quite large enough.

::* Create a seperate partition for the /boot filesystem

::* optionally create a seperate partition for the /boot filesystem, at least 42MB in size

::* optionally, you may select a seperate partition for swap space.  1-2GB is recommended and will allow the use of hibernation (suspend-to-disk)

::* optionally create a seperate partition for swap space, typically 1 or 2 times the size of ram in your system.  This will allow the use of hibernation (suspend-to-disk, via pm-hibernate command run from root terminal shell).

::* note: formatting in the partitioner is not required.
