:'''easy to archive''' with '''export''' function of VirtualBox - save weekly? backups for each of the students.

: To roll back: import the previously exported file - quick and easy

* [[Improve_Sugar_on_a_Stick#Where_we_need_to_simplify| Where we need to simplify]] We need a simple, elegant, Sugar specific UI that is presented to the user when they insert a stick into a running Windows machine.

*Suggestion-1:

:Download the 2 files for VirtualBox import to a 2nd USB stick

:On insertion; the contents of the USB stick pop up

An example:

f16-live-RC4-Desktop-sugaruser-disk1.vmdk

f16-live-RC4-Desktop-sugaruser.ovf '''<==click on this file and it immediately imports into VirtualBox (less than 2 Minutes)'''

(Only the .ovf file icon is highlighted in the USB stick contents)

*Suggestion-2:

:Export the VirtualBox .vdi hard drive to a 2nd USB and create a new machine that uses the .vdi to run

:/home/(user)/VirtualBox VMs/ (copy all three files to USB-stick)

:Create a new appliance

:use pre-existing hard disk

:Look for .vdi (on USB-stick)
