==== Mac Boot Bugs ====
''The boot sequence does not work properly due to minor bugs. Follow these workarounds to boot an intel Mac.''<br>
*image-writer-mac and BootHelperCD are not compatible:
** BootHelperCD can only boot sticks named FEDORA
** Image-writer gives the USB stick the name of blueberry-2-soas
** USB stick is created as read only. So the name is not easily changed by mere mortals.
This is a showstopper.<br>You cannot boot without hacking the USB stick name.<br>Use a windows machine to create Sugar on a Stick, named FEDORA, with persistent overlay.
*Sugar on a Stick is READ-ONLY
**Nothing is saved between reboots. Sugar asks for your name and colors each boot.
**imge-writer-mac does not create a persistent overlay file.
There is no way to create a persistent overlay on Mac without hacking the USB stick.<br>Use a windows machine to create Sugar on a Stick, named FEDORA, with persistent overlay.
*BootHelperCD cannot boot Mac without typing secret code into difficult to read window:
** interrupt the countdown boot sequence by pressing F4
** append selinux=0 to the kernel's list of boot parameters
** press return or enter to continue the boot process
Submit bugs and gripe at developers until they create a boot helperCD that boots without selinux=0<br>We'd prefer something more legible than white text on white background.
