+

*Download-able 7.4M CD.iso file.

+

:This is a set of Annotated screen shots as Web Page.html files with the accompanying folder containing the files for the .html

+

:They were created with "save as" - "web page complete" using firefox. And subsequently edited in gedit.

*Problem with Browse/Surf-115 in SoaS and the XO-1

+

:These browsers will not open the accompanying folder containing the files for the .html.

+

:This results in a web page with no links or .png screen-shots

+

:Firefox-6.xo handles this correctly

+

::Note:Firefox-6.xo does not use or have sugar-journal access.

+

::This means XO-1 security should not be compromised.

*Firefox-6.xo installed from this USB-stick has been successfully tested viewing the .html web pages on the USB-stick.

+

: VirualBox 4.1 for OSX with install of Sugar 0.95.1 in [[Community/Distributions/Mageia|Mageia]] release 2 (no other browser works on this Distro)

+

*Installation

+

:This .iso is intended to be burned to a CD

+

:The CD can be used directly or copy/paste the contents of the CD to a USB-Stick
