Use cases

This is a list of ways we'll support Soas installation and their stauts. TODO: replace with a flow chart.

Sugar:

  1. From a hard disk:
    1. Local booting with storage - Implemented via various distros
    2. Local booting with external storage - unimplemented, students would insert their SoaS stick and it would load their data off it and optionally update their stick's software to the latest image
  2. On a stick:
    1. Mobile booting using USB Boot support in BIOS - implemented
    2. Mobile booting using ISO helper CDs - implemented
    3. Mobile emulation - unimplemented
    4. Combination of booting and emulation - unimplemented

Install methods

  1. Windows/Mac/Linux
    1. LiveUSB creator script - implemented
  2. Windows
    1. SoaS-emu - installer for a soas appliance on the local machine - WiP
    2. MokaFive portable player installer - investigating
  3. Other
    1. LiveCD which creates USB sticks - idea
