	* on another computer, visit [https://arm.fedoraproject.org/ arm.fedoraproject.org] and download the Sugar on a Stick image,
	* write the image to a microSD card, see [[#Fedora_Media_Writer]] below, or use the [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/Raspberry_Pi Fedora Raspberry Pi Documentation],
	* insert the microSD card into the Raspberry Pi, and turn it on,
	* answer the post-install questions; time zone, root password, and add a user,
	* at the login prompt log in with the added user, and Sugar will start.

	~~== Security Warning ==~~

	Remote access is pre-enabled through SSH, for both root and any user accounts. Risk can be reduced by choosing strong passwords in the post-install setup questions. Can be fixed after install with Terminal command;

	~~sudo chkconfig sshd off~~

	* download the raw.xz file
	* select and extract, result is a raw file
	* start Fedora Media Writer
	* select "Custom"
	* select the raw file
	* Insert microSD in Mini Card Reader and insert in USB port
	* Choose rpi3 from drop-down in Fedora Media Writer
	* Write microSD
