''Note, the "Sugar" entry in the login screen may not be very obvious at first, and the look will depend on the login manager on your system. This image shows the "Sugar" entry being selected in Fedora 20. Click the image to enlarge.''
 
 
 
 
 
Select "Sugar" within the login prompt, enter your password, and '''Enter''', and the computer will boot into Sugar Desktop Environment.
