==Help with Testing==
==Help with Testing==
With new builds coming frequently, it is sometimes hard to keep track of known problems and temporary workarounds. Sometimes a build will not complete the boot process, or only start certain services.
With new builds coming in frequently, it is sometimes hard to keep track of known problems and temporary workarounds. Sometimes a build will not complete the boot process, or only start certain services. Testers can help other testers by organizing some of their findings here. Remember different hardware combinations may have different results.

==== Downloading alternative images ====
A variety of images for testing are available. Some of images might still be unstable; that means ''they might not work yet.''
* Beta testing snapshots are at [[Sugar on a Stick/Beta]].
* A virtual appliance .vmdk file for use with VirtualBox or VMware is available at [[Sugar Creation Kit/VirtualBox]].
*: The virtual appliances are ''not ready'' for general use, and are under heavy development. Any help with testing them is appreciated, though.
