==LiveOS image==
Below are instructions for preparing a VirtualBox disk image from a SoaS iso image file.  The process parallels the compressed [[LiveOS image]] used on Live CD and Live USB installations.
* (Taken from Dave Bauer's posting at http://schools.sugarlabs.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=27.)
* Updated 16 August 2010 with [http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads VirtualBox 3.2.8] and 32-bit Fedora.


Instructions for preparing a VirtualBox disk image from a SoaS iso image file.
 
:(Taken from Dave Bauer's posting at http://schools.sugarlabs.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=27.)
('''Note:''' The SoaS .iso distribution also contains an installer for full, uncompressed, hard disc images of Fedora with the Sugar graphical interface. See [[#Uncompressed, hard disc image|Uncompressed, hard disc image]] below for instructions.)
==Installing SoaS iso image==
===Installing SoaS .iso image===
# Create a new VM.
# Create a new VM, choose a name, such as Mirabelle
# Choose Linux->Fedora
# Choose Linux for the Operating System and Version Fedora (use 64 bit, if available)
# Choose 256MB
# Choose Base Memory Size: 256 MB to match an XO-1, 512 or 1024 MB to match an XO-1.5
# Create a new disk image, 2GB
# Create a new virtual hard disk image with dynamically expanding storage of 2 GB
# Finish.
# Finish.
# Download the lastest SoaS, http://download.sugarlabs.org/soas/snapshots/2/?C=M;O=D, for Fedora-11-beta.
# Download the lastest SoaS, http://spins.fedoraproject.org/soas/#downloads, for Fedora 13.
# Mount SoaS ISO as a CD-ROM in the newly created VM.
# Mount the SoaS .iso image file as a CD-ROM in the newly created VM.
# Change Network Adapter to Intel Pro/1000 MT Desktop (82540EM)
# Change the Network Attached to: Bridged Adapter  (This allows for networking with the host computer.)
#* recommended by VirtualBox for modern hosts -- Default of PCnet-FAST III (Am79C973) also worked on Ubuntu 8.10 and Vista hosts.
# Start the VM
#* Select Attached to: Host Interface -- allows local networking for SSH connections to probe the file system.
# Enter an account name and startup Sugar.
# Boot VM
# Type you name and startup Sugar.
# Open Terminal.
# Open Terminal.

# {{Code|mke2fs /dev/sda1}}
#* the --unencrypted-home option prevents password protection and encryption on the /home/liveuser folder. This releaves the overhead on the compressed sqaushfs and should be more robust to file system failures (outside of security).

* the --overlay-size-mb NNN and --home-size-mb NNN options creates space for persistence of changes on the disk; otherwise, a liveOS disk is read-only. See [[LiveOS image]].
: <br>The following optional parameters seem to be incompatible with soas-1-strawberry and soas-2-blueberry released versions.  (The script completes successfully, but the virtual machine startup process has trouble finding the home directory and fails to complete.)
* the --home-size-mb NNN option creates space for file storage in the /home/liveuser folder.  (In the case where you you want to update the LiveOS image while keeping the user files, skip the new disk creation and parted steps, leave out the --home-size-mb NNN option at this step, and continue on.)

Thanks! for this information.  update kernel consumed 203280/1048576 of the overlay and install kernel-headers kernel-devel dkms gcc raised consumption to 1047112/1048576 leading to failure of the ./VBoxLinuxAdditions-x86.run  -->
 
==Configure Screen==
If you want to match the 16 bpp XO screen and a particular display size, you may
# Edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf to match the following section:
#* 832x624 - matches default XO display proportions
#* 1200x900 - XO reflective resolution
<pre>
# VirtualBox generated configuration file
# based on /etc/X11/xorg.conf.
