You can run [[Emulator image files]] of almost any version of Sugar and the XS school server in qemu, including daily builds, releases, Sugar on a Stick, Live CDs, sugar-jhbuild, and whatever else we come up with.

There are emulation modules for qemu to emulate a wide range of processors and peripherals.
