| + | == Sugar not booting == |
| + | |
| + | I got Sugar to boot under VirtualBox 2.X / MacOS 10.5 following the recommended procedure. With VirtualBox 3.X something seems to be broken. Neither my old VDI nor a newly downloaded one will proceed to more than that black screen. Sad! |
| + | |
| + | But don't despair: You need to get the installation ISO (380 MB) from the downloads page ([[Sugar on a Stick/Downloads]]). Add this as the CD-ROM to your virtual machine and set the first boot volume to this CD-ROM. Now Sugar works as before! |
