===Make a Soas-v2-Blueberry Installer USB (with liveusb-creator installed)===

*(this step not required for Blueberry)
* In sugar-terminal:

THEN:
*in sugar terminal: '''zyx-liveinstaller'''
Note 1: the rest of this procedure will not work for a script created live USB [http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Category:Live_USB#use_livecd-iso-to-disk_script_to_write_a_live_USB] as CD and USB's do not show up on sugar frame.
Note 2: from terminal in sugar: '''yum install gvfs''' this fixes problem in mounting of CD and USB's in some soas versions. (from tomeu)
IF - USB and CD devices are not mounted in the bottom of the sugar frame when inserted;
zyx-liveinstaller must be used
