Revision as of 05:01, 6 December 2010
This is a quick guide to the locations of various forms of Sugar software that can run in QEMU emulation or VMware or VirtualBox virtualization.
You can download installation images (.iso files) for Linux distributions that support Sugar and create your own bootable images with Sugar installed.
See VirtualBox, VMware, or QEMU for more information on how to run an image, and Supported systems for more information on what is available.

Image installation tools
ZyX-LiveInstaller
- ZyX-LiveInstaller allows you to install Sugar from either a booted Live USB device or Live CD media to a system or external disk. It creates a traditional operating system installation on disk (or removable media such as SD or USB storage devices).
- This program can be useful for installing to a virtualized hard disk. It is not included in builds after soas-v2 Blueberry, so it must be downloaded and installed to use.
- In a running SoaS Terminal session or console, execute the following commands:
suyum install zyx-liveinstaller gparted
EasyVMX!
- Make a VMware Player appliance with-out needing a copy of VMware Workstation
- web site that builds a vmx file to your specifications (free)
- Works fine, runs on most platforms, and has persistence
- VMware Player download (free): http://www.vmware.com/tryvmware/
- EXAMPLE: soas-i386-20100926.17.iso burned to a CD
- specified a 8 GB Hard Drive and other parameters
- downloaded, in browse, the Custom vmx file as a .zip file
- Decompressed the .zip file
- Put soas-i386-20100926.17 CD in your CD Drive
- Open VMPlayer and point it to this vmx file
- CD boots in VMplayer application
- Sugar Starts
- To install to VMplayer Hard Disk:
- Open Sugar-terminal:
su liveinst Anaconda installer opens Initialize all disks Install procedes normally reboot firstboot Log in to user you specified
HINT: put the VMplayer Hard Disk Files on a 2 GB USB stick.
- (note runs about 10x slower on a USB stick)
- Example above created a 1.4 GB set of files'
- Copy-Paste all files
- Sugar on a Stick in VM Player form with persistence
- Portable (Student can take home and run on home Computer)
- Run it on different Platforms
