== Pre-built Images ==
There are few pre-built Debian images for Sugar, and the tools available in Debian make this easy for any integration or deployment team. There's no need for us to duplicate documentation here.
See also https://wiki.debian.org/SugarBlend for one method and an image.
See also [[Debian/Raspberry Pi]] for the Raspberry Pi, a [[GSoC]] work in progress, based on an image builder [https://github.com/drtyhlpr/rpi23-gen-image.git|rpi23-gen-image].
