* Announcement: http://lists.sugarlabs.org/archive/iaep/2020-November/020943.html
+
Among other things,
 +
* It has lots of Activities
 +
* It autostarts if you just turn it on
 +
* It has a joyful splash screen
 +
* It uses any Linux swap partitions it finds
 +
 
 +
Now for the bad news...
 +
 
 +
* It only has English and Spanish as language options
 +
* it is missing the firmware to make some wireless chips work (Intel 3945, maybe others)
 +
 
 +
and it shares a hardware-specific bug with the other Sugar Live systems:
 +
* With some nVidia video cards, Xorg's "nouveau" DRI driver bug which makes  github.com/login go all gray and affects other websites including gmail.com The simplest and least invasive fix is to delete /usr/lib/*-linux-gnu/dri/nouveau_dri.so<BR>Hot fix on Live System: CTRL-ALT-F2 trisquel [Enter] [Enter] sudo rm /usr/lib/*-linux-gnu/dri/nouveau_dri.so; sudo killall Xorg [Enter] then login as trisquel [Enter] [Enter])<BR>For gory details see [http://github.com/sugarlabs/sugar-live-build/issues/20 sugar-live-build issue 20]

==Live CD persistence==

===Live CD persistence===
 
   
You can achieve user data persistence by loading TOAST from a handy USB drive, but you can also use a regular Live CD for that, and it will work in systems with no USB-boot capabilities. You just need to pass the "persistent" parameter to the Live CD kernel (pressing F4 in the boot menu) and have a ext2 (ext3 and 4 will work too) partition labeled "live-rw" available in any disk. It can be a USB flash drive too.

===USB load helper===
   
Some computers -like Apple's- cannot boot an operating system from a thumb drive, and in some cases the computer is not configured to do so and the user doesn't have the privileges or knowledge to do that, and a CD is the only method for booting a system. As USB images run faster and can provide integrated persistence, you might want to use the Live CD to load just the kernel and run the live session from the faster flash drive instead. You just need to create a Live USB drive using the method described above, and boot the computer with both the CD and the USB drive inserted. Set the computer to boot from the CD, and it will load the kernel and search for USB drives to continue booting from them.

Using a USB SD card reader you should be able to use the usb-creator tool to load the live image into a SD card. That will allow you to boot the persistent live system in a XO or netbook, or install TOAST in its hard drive. It should also work with other card formats, as long as the computer is able to boot from them.
