The existing infrastructure of the school needs to be expanded. The first test runs use [http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Sugar_on_a_Stick Sugar On A Stick], but if this is successful, Sugar could be directly installed on the computers for the second round. The laptops, previously Windows-only, have been dual-booted with Linux ([http://fedoraproject.org/ Fedora] 11) using Sugar version 0.84. Users can choose between Windows and Sugar (Linux) on startup.

The school server uses the school's [http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightweight_Directory_Access_Protocol LDAP server] to authenticate the user. Since Fedora supports this type of authentication, only one configuration had to be adjusted in the client. [http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_File_System NFS] is used to bind network drives; this was done by adjusting a configuration file on the clients. So that the installation would not need to be manually duplicated, a complete installation was snapshotted with [http://clonezilla.org/ Clonezilla] and loaded onto the other computers.
