what I do to make it work:


- Restart my MacBook Pro with the Blueberry imaged USB and the Boot Helper CD in place.
#Restart my MacBook Pro with the Blueberry imaged USB and the Boot Helper CD in place.
- Hold the 'C' key from the time the screen becomes black on the restart until the CD's boot screen comes up.
- At the boot screen, press Tab key to enter into the boot/kernel parameters screen.  This screen shows default values as follow:
vmlinuz0 initrd=initrd0.img root=LABEL=FEDORA rootfstype=vfat rw liveimg overlay=LABEL=FEDORA quiet rhgb
(note that there are actually two spaces between quiet and rhgb)
- Using the arrow keys, move the cursor to the end of 'root=LABEL=FEDORA', backspace out the 'FEDORA', and replace it with 'soas-2-blueberry' (without the quotes, of course).
- Arrow to the end of 'rootfstype=vfat', then press backspace to remove the 'vfat' portion.  Replace it with 'iso9660' (again, without the quotes).
- Arrow to the end of the command line (one space after the 'rhgb' parameter).  Add 'selinux=0' (that's a zero, and again, leave out the quotes).'

# Hit return and (hopefully) boot USB into sugar
