These are the steps for installing Sugar on a Stick on a USB/SD device.
This page is transcluded to various installation instruction pages.
- Download the latest Sugar on a Stick .iso file.
- Prepare: (with root user permissions at a terminal or console command line)
- Create a mount point directory:
mkdir /run/soas - Mount the .iso file to make it accessible as a disk:
mount /path/to/downloaded.iso /run/soas/- (Where /path/to/downloaded.iso is the filesystem path, or fully specified name, of the downloaded .iso file.)
- This is the source for the installation, and must remain mounted until the installation is complete.
- Insert a USB stick of 2 GB or greater capacity into your computer.
- Use the command
df -Thorblkidto get the USB device node name. - (The
/run/media/MyAccount/path is the new, Fedora 17 standard mount point for removable media./media/MyMountPointis common on other operating systems.) - (Additional disk drive partitions may be listed on your computer.)
- The mount point (Mounted on), Filesystem, Size, and LABEL should help you identify what you want.
- Unmount the USB device filesystem:
umount /run/media/MyAccount/MyUSBdiscMountPoint- (The
/run/media/MyAccount/path is the new, Fedora 17 standard mount point. Other operating systems may use/media/MyMountPoint.)
- (The
- (You should have the isomd5sum package installed so that the following installation script can verify the download.)
You should see something like the following:[root@MyComputer ~]# df -Th Filesystem Type Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on rootfs rootfs 20G 5.5G 14G 29% / devtmpfs devtmpfs 1.6G 0 1.6G 0% /dev tmpfs tmpfs 1.6G 788K 1.6G 1% /dev/shm tmpfs tmpfs 1.6G 1.3M 1.6G 1% /run tmpfs tmpfs 1.6G 0 1.6G 0% /sys/fs/cgroup tmpfs tmpfs 1.6G 0 1.6G 0% /media /dev/loop0 iso9660 668M 668M 0 100% /run/soas /dev/sdc1 vfat 2.0G 2.0G 53M 98% /run/media/MyAccount/LG /

- Create a mount point directory:
- Load: Execute the following installation command, as the root user, in one command line with many options:/run/soas/LiveOS/livecd-iso-to-disk --reset-mbr --overlay-size-mb 500 --home-size-mb 800 --unencrypted-home /path/to/downloaded.iso /dev/sd?1
- The '
?' in the final parameter represents the target USB device scsi drive node, such assdb1orsdc1, etc., and/path/to/downloaded.isois the location and name of the .iso file. - The operating system will occupy ~670 MB, and the overlay and home size arguments, 500 and 800, were selected to fit in a 2 GB device. These may be adjusted depending on your preferences and device capacity (see LiveOS image). SoaS 10 can be squeased into a 1 GB device with 160 and 170. On a 4 GB device, one might use 1000 and 1600 for the size arguments.
The installation transcript should look something like the following:[root@MyComputer ~]# /run/soas/LiveOS/livecd-iso-to-disk --reset-mbr --overlay-size-mb 500 --home-size-mb 800 --unencrypted-home /home/MyAccount/Downloads/Fedora-Live-SoaS-x86_64-20-1.iso /dev/sdc1 Verifying image... /home/MyAccount/Downloads/Fedora-Live-SoaS-x86_64-20-1.iso: b0a9414ff7eb79b680d5c86440e19587 Fragment sums: 9bfe23577651c88dcfb78c76ac3a28a5c53eead4561e3bdc5921b8b2e748 Fragment count: 20 Press [Esc] to abort check.

- Boot: Insert the USB stick into a bootable USB port on your computer. Set the option to "boot from USB" in your computer's BIOS setup, and then start up the computer.
- To create more Sugar Sticks on other 1 GB or greater USB or SD devices, while running Sugar on a Stick, in the Terminal Activity, execute this command as the root user:/run/initramfs/live/LiveOS/livecd-iso-to-disk --reset-mbr --overlay-size-mb 160 --home-size-mb 170 --delete-home --unencrypted-home /run/initramfs/livedev /dev/sd?1
- Replace
/dev/sd?1with a new device node for the second USB/SD device that you want to load with Sugar on a Stick.
- To create more Sugar Sticks on other 1 GB or greater USB or SD devices, while running Sugar on a Stick, in the Terminal Activity, execute this command as the root user:
