*Technical Discussion of Live USB's: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_create_and_use_Live_USB#Data_Persistence

::Limited Lifetime of Persistent Overlay

One very important note about using the "primary" persistent overlay for system changes is that due to the way it's currently implemented (as a LVM copy-on-write snapshot),

every single change to it (writes AND deletes) subtracts from its free space, so it will eventually be "used up" and your USB stick will no longer boot.

Because of these limitations, it is advisable to use the system-level persistence sparingly, for configuration changes and important security updates only.

For a truly persistent write-many (vs write-once) overlay, use the --home-size-mb option to create a home directory filesystem image for personal files.

Unlike the primary system overlay image, the home.img can be re-used and loop mounted outside of the liveusb environment.

*# Collect, annotate and sort the files you want in a folder on your Desktop.

*# Burn the contents of this folder to a CD or DVD.

*# Use the following command in Terminal as the root user:

*#: <big><code>dd if=/dev/sr0 of=Sugar-Creation-Kit.iso</code></big>

:/dev/sr0 is the device name for your DVD/CD drive

*: Sample output:

======Start Gnome3 in Fallback Mode======

*"You can force fallback mode from a VT,much faster than trying to get through the control center, with this command:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.session session-name 'gnome-fallback'

* With live CD or USB liveuser

:run it as user - not root - then log out and back in again.

Switching between text consoles in a Linux virtual machine When the CTRL + ALT + F1 key combination is used to switch to another text console (terminal) on a Linux virtual machine,

the host switches to a text console instead of the guest.

Resolution The CTRL + ALT combination is used by VMware to direct the keyboard input to the host. Press CTRL + ALT + Space , press the F1 key (or desired Function key) while still holding down CTRL + ALT .

======Workaround for Alacarte======

*Edit gnome3 menus

Change menu items by editing the *.desktop files in /usr/share/applications/

Just unzip the file and run the script found in the package and you answering the questions,

the script will generate a directory with the activity for sugar, then you should give the required permissions to each file and directory

as explained in the main page this site and package the directory

to download the activity from the x or directly copy the entire directory to / home / olpc / Activities on the XO.
