This is a quick guide to the locations of various forms of Sugar and the XS school server software that can run in QEMU or VirtualBox emulation. You can download installation .isos for other Linux distributions that support Sugar and create your own bootable images with Sugar installed. See [[QEMU]] or [[VirtualBox]] for how to run an image, and [[Supported systems]] for more information on what is available.

Most of these images do not include the latest 0.84 release. Some that do have 0.84 have serious [https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-vesa/+bug/356133 bugs] that prevent them from running at all, or have [[Sugar on a Stick/Getting Involved/Testing/Soas2-200904231400|Activities that do not run]].

[[Chris Ball]] promises a regular release schedule of 1.5 builds by the time XO 1.5 prototypes enter production. If you're interested in contributing or testing, they would certainly love your help. You can find them on the [http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-olpc-list fedora-olpc mailing list], and freenode IRC's #fedora-olpc channel.

* [http://wiki.laptop.org/go/XS_LiveCD XS Installer] '''Warning''': If you are not paying attention, this will format your hard drive. Of course, if you boot this in kvd/qemu/VirtualBox alongside an empty hard drive image, you probably want it to format your drive image and install the School Server.

* Various [[Supported systems|Linux distro installation images]], where Sugar can be installed from packages: Fedora, Debian, Ubuntu Intrepid (but not Jaunty so far), ALT Linux, Mandriva, Caixa Mágica, Gentoo, OpenSUSE, Slackware. Not all of them work. Note that the command to start Sugar is usually 'sugar-emulator'. The command 'sugar' will seem to start, but will have a broken UI, and packages will not start.
