'''Sugar on a Stick''' loaded USB devices should run on Intel Macs.
Follow these instructions '''every time''' you wish to use your '''Sugar on a Stick''' device on an intel Mac:
See [[Sugar on a Stick/Macintosh]] for a Fedora 17 test from April 2012.
*Boot the Mac with the boot-helper CD
*interrupt the boot sequence
*edit the kernel parameters

You can create a '''Sugar on a Stick''' device with a Mac. However, to save the Journal you must create your stick on a PC or Linux machine: Instructions for [[Sugar_on_a_Stick/Windows|Windows]] and [[Sugar_on_a_Stick/Linux|Linux]] <!-- Have you tried to run the livecd-iso-to-disk bash script with --efi option on a 32-bit Intel Mac? (do they exist?) (would a bash script even run? could it be modified to run on a Mac, for example, substitute $(readlink -f "$2") calls with $(readlink "$2") and whatever else is required?)
