==VirtualBox appliance derived from SoaS Mirabelle==
  −
: updated 13 Oct 2010
  −
  −
This appliance has a traditional, non-compressed filesystem and was built by using [[Sugar on a Stick/ZyX-LiveInstaller|ZyX-LiveInstaller]] on a SoaS Mirabelle image. (It does not simulate the stock ''Sugar on a Stick'' image with its [[LiveOS image]] with a compressed filesystem, [[wikipedia:SquashFS|SquashFS]], for the operating system files and an optional overlay and home folder for persistence.)

These Activities have been updated: Physics-6, Record-79, Write-70, Turtle Art-99

For the first 2 files, you may need to right click and select 'Save link as...' or 'Save Target As...' because they open directly into the browser.

* Start VirtualBox
  −
* In the top-left corner of the application menu bar:
  −
*: File -> Import Appliance...
  −
*: '''Note: The Import Option is not available on the OSE version of VirtualBox.'''
  −
::Import option is available in VirtualBox 4.0.4 (which is ose)
  −
* Click the <Choose...> button to find the 3 downloaded files.
  −
*: select: soas-v3-Mirabelle-zyx.ovf
  −
*: then click 'Next'
  −
* '''Appliance Import Settings''' window appears:
  −
* Double click on the '''Guest OS Type''' row and the right column is a dropdown selection panel. Change the value to OS: Linux  Version: Fedora (from Other/unknown)
  −
* Agree to GPL license and click the 'Finish' button.
  −
* The Import process progress meter will appear, and then the new virtual machine named '''soas-v3-Mirabelle-zyx2''' will appear in your VirtualBox virtual machine list.
  −
* Click the start button or double click the machine name to start your virtual machine with Sugar.
  −
** The first boot experience (of selecting a learner name and color set) can be recreated by erasing the /user/liveuser/.sugar/default/owner.key & .../owner.key.pub files from this machine before distribution.
  −
** Can the default window size be set to simulate an XO at 832x624 pixels? Do we have a license to distribute images with Guest Additions installed?
  −
** I found a base memory setting of 802 MB RAM.  This may be too high for older computers. --[[User:FGrose|FGrose]] 13:02, 14 October 2010 (EDT)

You may create you own virtual machine beginning with an .iso image of Sugar on a Stick

I got Sugar to boot under VirtualBox 2.X / MacOS 10.5 following the recommended procedure. With VirtualBox 3.X something seems to be broken. Neither my old VDI nor a newly downloaded one will proceed to more than that black screen. Sad!

But don't despair: You need to get the installation ISO (380 MB) from the downloads page (http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Sugar_on_a_Stick/Downloads). Add this as the CD-ROM to your virtual machine and set the first boot volume to this CD-ROM. Now Sugar works as before!
