Install Testing

Preparing a stick or CD for smoke testing

  • This is the first Phase of testing:
sticks can be made using many methods:
USB-scr =./livecd-iso-to-disk
USB-LC = fedora Liveusb-creator (Windows/Linux)
USB-Un = Unetbootin (Windows/Linux)
CD = Booted from CD (burn the .iso to a CD)
SC = SugarClone [3]
Advanced methods for experts only NOT USED FOR REGULAR TESTING
ZYX = zyx-liveinstaller install to USB- requires double the size of USB min 4Gb recommended 8 GB
liveinst = (Anaconda) install to USB- requires double the size of USB min 4Gb recommended 8 GB
dd = dd write.iso file to USB-

USB-scr =./livecd-iso-to-disk

This is a test using the script livecd-iso-to-disk

Download also to your desktop if you have not done so before http://download.sugarlabs.org/soas/releases/livecd-iso-to-disk.sh
  • 2. In terminal change directory to your desktop:
  1. cd /home/Desktop
  2. enter the command:
mount
You should see the USBdevice name ie: /dev/sdb, /dev/sdc, /dev/sdd etc. Write it down
  • THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT as if you enter this wrong you can DISTROY your HARD DISK Install. DO NOT USE /dev/sda EVER
Unless you have NO HARD_DISK in your computer
HINT: copy the following commands to a text editor first. Then edit them and be certain that they are correct. Then copy-paste into the terminal.
(--format --reset-mbr)This will overwrite everything on your USB.
  1. enter the commands:
  2. sudo su
  3. ./livecd-iso-to-disk --format --reset-mbr --overlay-size-mb 800 /home/xxx/Desktop/soas-i386-20100xxx.xx.iso /dev/sd(x)
(x)=this is your device name for the USB found above with mount command.
--overlay-size-mb 800 for 2 GB USB
--overlay-size-mb 1200 for 4 GB USB
USB is formatted fat16 ( overlay has to be <2000 for fat16 )
Example Write to USB:
::xxx@xxxxx:~$ sudo su
[sudo] password for xxxx: 
root@xxxxxx:/home/xxxxx # cd Desktop
root@xxxxxx:/home/xxxx/Desktop# ./livecd-iso-to-disk  --format --reset-mbr --overlay-size-mb 1200 /home/xxxx/Desktop/soas-i386-20100xxx.xx.iso /dev/sd(x)
Verifying image...
./livecd-iso-to-disk: line 385: checkisomd5: command not found
Are you SURE you want to continue?
Press Enter to continue or ctrl-c to abort
WARNING: THIS WILL DESTROY ANY DATA ON /dev/sdg!!!
Press Enter to continue or ctrl-c to abort
Waiting for devices to settle...
mkdosfs 3.0.1 (23 Nov 2008)
Copying live image to USB stick
Updating boot config file
Initializing persistent overlay file
1200+0 records in
1200+0 records out
1258291200 bytes (1.3 GB) copied, 284.256 s, 4.4 MB/s
Installing boot loader
USB stick set up as live image!
root@xxxxx:/home/xxxx/Desktop#
  • 3. Remove USB and place in Netbook USB Slot
  • 4. Boot from it
  • 5, Begin Smoke Tests [4]

USB-LC = fedora Liveusb-creator (Windows/Linux)

USB-Un = Unetbootin (Windows/Linux)

CD = Booted from CD

  • burn the Test Soas.iso to a CD with a disk burning program
  • boot From the CD
Note there will be no persistence
Your settings and colors will not be retained when you reboot from the CD
  • Begin Smoke Tests [7]

dd = direct install to USB

  • This is the simplest and fastest method to make a non-persistent Soas USB.
NOT A RECOMMENDED INSTALL METHOD
It is quite dangerous to use and is ONLY FOR ADVANCED USERS
One error in typing can destroy your Hardisk formatting with no error warnings.
Sample Install to USB
root@xxxx:/home/xxxx/Desktop# dd if=soas-i386-20100702.15.iso of=/dev/sdg
974848+0 records in
974848+0 records out
499122176 bytes (499 MB) copied, 137.931 s, 3.6 MB/s
root@xxxx:/home/xxxx/Desktop#
Note that the entire write takes slightly more than 2 minutes.
  • Great way to make an installer USB if you have no CD/DVD on your netbook

Smoke-testing a SoaS stick or CD

  • The Second phase of Testing begins:
USB or CD Boots to Name______ screen
then Color_______screen (click on XO Avitar to change colors till you like color combos.)
hit enter
F3 Circle of Activities Appears with your avitar in center.
Point mouse cursor at Avitar XO and hit right mouse button-Menu appears, select "My Settings"
Control Panel Appears. Test each of the applications on Control Panel to see that they work
Exit Control Panel with X in top right corner
Hit F1 Key (or move mouse cursor to right top corner of white part of screen, a black frame appears on window, select the left circle with many dots and click mouse)
Screen changes and you avitar becomes much smaller
Do other avitars appear after 1-2 minutes? (If so you are seeing other sugar instances in your neighborhood)
Point mouse cursor at your Avitar XO in the center of the screen and hit right mouse button. Drop-Down Menu appears select "Shutdown"
Sugar Exits and shuts down computer.
  • Reboot (skip this step for CD), You should boot directly to the f3 screen with the Circle of Activities and your avitar in center with the Correct colors.
  • Point mouse cursor at your Avitar XO in the center of the screen and hit right mouse button. Drop-Down Menu appears select "Shutdown"
Sugar Exits and shuts down computer.
  • Test Is Complete.

Enter your results in Test Table.

Thank You for testing

It will look correct when editing


  • KEY
  • USB-scr =./livecd-iso-to-disk --format --reset-mbr --overlay-size-mb 1200 soas-i386-20100xxx.xx.iso /dev/sd(x)
  • USB-LC = fedora Liveusb-creator
  • USB-Un = Unetbootin
  • CD = Booted from CD NO PERSISTENCE
  • ZYX = zyx-liveinstaller install to USB- requires double the size of USB min 4Gb recommended 8 GB (not on .iso, requires yum install zyx-liveinstaller gparted)
  • liveinst = (Anaconda) install to USB- requires double the size of USB min 4Gb recommended 8 GB
  • dd = dd write.img file to USB NO PERSISTENCE
  • Soas Boots,Starts and Stops Correctly
  • P=Pass
  • F=Fail
note: I am also using an external USB 500GB hard drive with an daily updated f14(rawhide) install of Gnome-sugar as a livecd-creator-soas.ks build system.
I use this to compare with the daily builds
these results are marked below as ***.remix
