Are you new to Sugar?

There are two Live Systems that run Sugar from a USB stick or bootable DVD:

  • Sugar on a Stick based on Fedora, runs on 64-bit PCs and OS/X Macintoshes, OLPC XO and Raspberry Pi, in English only
  • Trisquel On A Sugar Toast, runs on 32- and 64-bit PCs and has more Activities and world language support

If you have a high-speed Internet connection, Fedora with the Sugar graphical learning environment may be installed to a hard disk or a a 4 GB USB stick with a Netinstall CD

Do you use GNU/Linux?

Sugar is supported by several GNU/Linux distributions. Sugar Labs does not support any specific distribution, but does focus development on Fedora and Debian, which helps SoaS and Ubuntu.
