* If you use a 1-GB device, do not (i) install large updates or activities or (ii) download large files.  The 300-MB overlay will quickly fill up (e.g., within an hour), and your device will become corrupted (i.e., unbootable) without any warning.  You may use the [[Sugar on a Stick/Sugar Clone|Sugar Cellar]] utility to monitor the usage of the persistent overlay. Also, check your Journal free space frequently.

* Use zyx-liveinstaller [[Sugar_on_a_Stick/ZyX-LiveInstaller]] for soas-v2-'''Blueberry''' or '''liveinst''' command for Fedora based installs in a terminal to make a non-live installation. It will require about 2x as large device as the file structure will not be compressed. These non-live installs are more robust in use but may have a shorter service lifetime (See [[olpc:How to Damage a FLASH Storage Device]].)
