'''Sugar Clone''' is, at this point in time (April 2010), a Bash script that aids in the copying of a customized LiveOS image, such as [[Sugar on a Stick]], to a secondary device. It works from within a booted LiveOS image to copy that image.  Or it may be used to copy a LiveOS image between 2 attached USB/SD storage devices.  It is intended to support the Sugar customization kit projects.
