- Used for install of any DE to Hard Disk as networkinstall (Including Sugar-Desktop)
Here are some ways to get .108 sugar:
You can also use the everthing netinstall to install sugar-desktop

- look for Software selection in installer then choose sugar desktop environment
- Checksum:
or use in another f24 Desktop Environment:
"dnf groupinstall sugar-desktop-environment"
(sudo dnf group list hidden -v)
Nightly F-24 images here from a couple of days ago:
- They will most definitely be there for F-24 GA, and there's the nightly composes of F-24 where they're there most of the time. The
- rel-eng process has been massively overhauled this dev cycle and there's still a few gremlins lurking.

Make a remix
- edit the bottom of the flat-fedora-live-soas.ks
- that you produce with ksflatten (above)
- in this section of the flattened.ks:
%packages
- add a program (add name)
- - delete a program ( put - in front)
- put # in front of listed program to not install it
- See this page for more details on remixes

- Build takes a long time wait for completion
- ends with:

copr update to 0.109 sugar
- copr installed in f24 workstation with a sugar-desktop installed (0.108)
- I see sugar 0.109 after dnf update and reboot. (satellit 06/05/2016)
"The copr doesn't include activities yet. If any activity authors want their activities in the copr, please send me tarballs (and probably send them to Peter Robinson as well so that they get into rawhide).
- snip...(earlier note to [sugar-devel) list
- I will be doing the release management for the 0.110 cycle. Please see the timeline [1]. I would appreciate any comments on the timeline.
- I've also setup a COPR for sugar, which I hope to maintain throughout this cycle. Are there any other packaging services that we should have to push testing releases to?
- Is there a service for automatic building of live SoaS images? XO images? Let's make this the most tested sugar release ever!
- Thanks,Sam"

wayland in rawhide
- Workstation now is using wayland by default
Users will be able to disable wayland by setting WaylandEnable=false in /etc/gdm/custom.conf but there will no longer be two separate menu
- update:
- GDM Menu updated to:
gnome (wayland gnome-classic x-gnome
- Wayland By Default
- WARNING
- Do not use any fedora 24 (rawhide) installs for anything but testing.
- This works in f23 virtual manager: https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/mash/rawhide-20151111/rawhide/x86_64/os/images/boot.iso
- https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/mash/rawhide/
- For latest builds:
- Alternate: (Still f23)
- How to test if you are using wayland
- 1) You can check if you're on wayland by running
$ ls -l $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/wayland-0
- if it returns a socket you're probably using wayland.
- 2)'xrandr' is easier to type... Output names have WAYLAND in them under wayland.
