'''Importing VM:'''
* Mac OS X: "File" -> "Import Apppliance..." + "open appliance"... + select the .ovf file.
'''Pre-assembled virtual machines''' For the latest, see the following pages:

*files to download
:[[Fedora_21_VirtualBox | Details of the install]]
====Some Suggestions on Using VirtualBox====
* Export your appliances to an external USB hard disk
:::Surf-115.xo browser
*: This functions like the Mac Application "Time Machine"
:::IRC.xo -(edited to log in to #sugar and #ubuntu-sugarteam)
*: Save each exported Appliance in a folder marked with the name and date of export.
*::You can then import this Appliance to restore the state of the Appliance on that date.
*'''install the virtualbox guest additions'''
::Integrates a Running Virtualbox Appliance with the desktop
*Run an Existing VirtualBox Appliance from an external USB Hard Drive
* VMware Player appliance of one of the [[Sugar on a Stick/Beta |nightly composes of Sugar on a Stick]] (soas-i386-20100818.16.iso)
*::Portable, Individual Copy for Student, Move between separate Computers.
