== Put [[Sugar on a Stick/Installation/OLPC | SoaS on an OLPC XO-1]] ==

* See [[Sugar on a Stick/Installation/OLPC]] for booting an OLPC XO-1 with SoaS images.

== Full Fedora 11 Install using LVM ==

Uses [[wikipedia:Logical_Volume_Manager_(Linux)|Logical Volume Manager (LVM)]] layer over the file structure on the USB flash drive.

THIS IS A WORK IN PROGRESS. Please make suggestions or improvements.

* Uses Fedora 11 Net Install CD, so best with a fast internet connection.

* Requires 4-GB USB drive. (Tested with Cruzer Micro USB Stick, an 8-GB Toshiba USB drive works faster.)

# Boot from CD

# Enter language, time, location, root user password)

# Replace existing Linux system

# Review file system

# Delete LVM swap file

# Edit LVM and increase to max size on (/dev/sda*)

# Select USB for install and boot *NOTE: Be sure this is the USB drive, or you will ruin your hard disk installation on the host PC.

# Select customize now

## sugar-desktop and XFCE desktop

## deselect other unwanted applications in categories (Games, etc)

#: Installer will reformat drive; install bootloader; transfer 957 packages (about 2 hours)

#reboot

# Configuration setup (Graphical), add user and password on first boot

# Log in User

# Select xfce or Sugar on selection bar

*This Works well....can switch back between desktops by logging off and back on.
