=== won't boot on XO-1 with q2e33 firmware, with a workaround ===
I downloaded Soas2-200903271806.iso and ran latest LiveUSB-Creator 3.6.3 under Windows XP to put it and a 256 MB persistent storage area on a USB flash drive.
Insert the USB flash drive, power on XO-1, hold down check key.
* The hot dog is back!
* After a minute the screen goes dark.
* After another 90 seconds of dark screen I get the blue swirl Login: screen with "liveuser",
* Log in.
* After several seconds that goes to dark screen, and a few seconds later I'm back at the blue Login: screen. :-(
In a console, <tt>~liveuser</tt> has no .sugar subdirectory, so it looks like
Sugar never got rolling.
The file "/var/log/slim.log" has various errors. There is no /home/liveuser/.Xauthority file, and
<tt>/home/liveuser</tt> is <tt>drwx-r-xr-x</tt> owned by root.
After running in a console
chown liveuser /home/liveuser
chgrp liveuser /home/liveuser
login proceeded fine.
