| ==VirtualBox appliance derived from SoaS Mirabelle==
| |
| : updated 13 Oct 2010
| |
|
| |
| This appliance has a traditional, non-compressed filesystem and was built by using [[Sugar on a Stick/ZyX-LiveInstaller|ZyX-LiveInstaller]] on a SoaS Mirabelle image. (It does not simulate the stock ''Sugar on a Stick'' image with its [[LiveOS image]] with a compressed filesystem, [[wikipedia:SquashFS|SquashFS]], for the operating system files and an optional overlay and home folder for persistence.)

|

| These Activities have been updated: Physics-6, Record-79, Write-70, Turtle Art-99

| * Start VirtualBox
| |
| * In the top-left corner of the application menu bar:
| |
| *: File -> Import Appliance...
| |
| *: '''Note: The Import Option is not available on the OSE version of VirtualBox.'''
| |
| ::Import option is available in VirtualBox 4.0.4 (which is ose)
| |
| * Click the <Choose...> button to find the 3 downloaded files.
| |
| *: select: soas-v3-Mirabelle-zyx.ovf
| |
| *: then click 'Next'
| |
| * '''Appliance Import Settings''' window appears:
| |
| * Double click on the '''Guest OS Type''' row and the right column is a dropdown selection panel. Change the value to OS: Linux Version: Fedora (from Other/unknown)
| |
| * Agree to GPL license and click the 'Finish' button.
| |
| * The Import process progress meter will appear, and then the new virtual machine named '''soas-v3-Mirabelle-zyx2''' will appear in your VirtualBox virtual machine list.
| |
| * Click the start button or double click the machine name to start your virtual machine with Sugar.
| |
| ** The first boot experience (of selecting a learner name and color set) can be recreated by erasing the /user/liveuser/.sugar/default/owner.key & .../owner.key.pub files from this machine before distribution.
| |
| ** Can the default window size be set to simulate an XO at 832x624 pixels? Do we have a license to distribute images with Guest Additions installed?
| |
| ** I found a base memory setting of 802 MB RAM. This may be too high for older computers. --[[User:FGrose|FGrose]] 13:02, 14 October 2010 (EDT)

| You may create you own virtual machine beginning with an .iso image of Sugar on a Stick
