==Sugar Activity Storage==
==Sugar Activity Storage==
Activity bundles that come pre-installed with the Sugar on a Stick (SoaS) are saved in the /usr/share/sugar/activities folder of the root filesystem. On first boot, the Activity bundles are copied to the /home/liveuser/.sugar/activities folder.  When an Activity isrun, all Activity instance data is saved in the Sugar Journal in /home/liveuser/.sugar/datastore/<hashed folder names>
Activity bundles that come pre-installed with the Sugar on a Stick (SoaS) are saved in the /usr/share/sugar/activities folder of the root filesystem. When Activities are updated from the Sugar Control Panel, the new Activity bundles are saved in the /home/liveuser/Activities folder.  When an Activity is run, Activity instance data is saved in the Sugar Journal in /home/liveuser/.sugar/default/<activity bundle_id> folder and /home/liveuser/.sugar/default/datastore/<hashed folder names>


When additional Activity bundles are downloaded, they are saved in the /home/liveuser/.sugar/activities folder (but not the /usr/share/sugar/activities folder).
When additional Activity bundles are downloaded, they are saved in the /home/liveuser/Activities folder (but not the /usr/share/sugar/activities folder).
Thus, when SoaS is installed with the --home-size-mb NNN option of livecd-iso-to-disk, storage for the Activities one wants to try and, perhaps later, throw away, is made available without consuming the write-once root filesystem overlay, which can be consumed very quickly (and overlay file space is not directly reusable).
