So. What's next? ~~First of all, you'll need to download smolt. It will be included in the upcoming snapshots of SoaS, but if you~~'re ~~using the beta, you'll need to open~~ the ~~terminal and run (as root)~~: ~~''yum install smolt''~~

So. What's next? Here're the instructions:

That's already it. Now you're ready to submit your hardware specs. For this, just call (~~also~~ as root): ''smoltSendProfile''

* First of all, you'll need to download SoaS, which already includes Smolt. Please use the latest snapshot and ''not'' the beta for this! Here's the direct link: {{SoaS-2 path}}

* That's already it. Now you're ready to submit your hardware specs. For this, just call (as root): ''smoltSendProfile''

* It will ask you again if you're sure and will also give you a link to your profile and an admin password then. Please keep those!

~~It will ask you again~~ if you~~'re sure and will also give you a link~~ to your ~~profile then. Please keep that!~~

If you type your admin password in the window on your profile page, you'll be also able to rate your experience with SoaS regarding the hardware support.

== Upcoming Improvements ==

We're working on getting Smolt integrated in a Sugar Activity to ease the process of submitting the information~~. Once SoaS will be listed as an own distribution in Smolt, we might also ask you to rate your experience with it there~~.
