<li>Use this script file [http://git.fedorahosted.org/git?p=hosted/livecd;a=blob_plain;f=tools/livecd-iso-to-disk.sh;hb=HEAD livecd-iso-to-disk] to create a bootable image.<br>(Run {{Code|chmod +x tools_livecd-iso-to-disk.sh}} after you download the script to make it executable.)</li>
  −
<li>Execute, as the root user, in <u>one</u> command with arguments, the following:<br>
  −
{{Code|./tools_livecd-iso-to-disk.sh --reset-mbr --overlay-size-mb '''300''' --home-size-mb '''175''' --delete-home --unencrypted-home '''/path/to/source.iso''' /dev/sd'''?'''1}}<br>
  −
: where '{{Code|'''?'''}}' in the final parameter represents the target bootable device node, such as {{Code|sdb1}} or {{Code|sdc1}}, etc., and<br>
  −
: make sure to replace {{Code|/path/to/source.iso}} with the path to the downloaded sugar-on-a-stick iso file.<br>
  −
: The operating system will occupy ~520 MB, and the overlay and home size arguments, 300 and 175, were selected to fit in a 1 GB device, but may be adjusted according to your device capacity.
  −
''Be certain of your USB/SD '''s'''csi '''d'''rive node name (such as sda, sdb, etc.) and partition (such as 1, 2, etc.).<br>
  −
: Use the {{Code|df -Th}} command to confirm your devices before executing the script.

:'''Note''': The graphical Liveusb-creator is an alternative installation method (see the first Windows [[#with Microsoft Windows |method]]), but it does not create the separate home.img filesystem, and so, the write-once persistent storage on the disk is more quickly consumed (see [[LiveOS image]]). If the USB device does not boot after running Liveusb-creator, the command {{Code|liveusb-creator --reset-mbr}} may help.
