Hi, I got the beta version to work on my PC (Dell Dimension 9200). Works great (and super fast) but I have a couple of newbie questions: 1. If I want to add an activity (Turtle Typing), is that possible? 2. I noticed that when looking at the thumb drive you don't see the actual directory structure. Does it set up a virtual directory structure upon booting? 3. Once booted, can I simply copy over the Turtle Typing directory structure into the virtual area? I suspect this would need to be done each time it is booted but I'm just wondering. I can see another thumb drives with the typing turles files on it... Now onto another question. Stop me if I'm not asking in the right place. I tried to load onto a Dell Inspiron 910 netbook that came loaded with Ubuntu. I created the 2 gig thumbdrive SoaS beta on an XP machine. When I used the Fedora Live USB Creator, I wasn't sure from the instructions what to choose in the pull down titled "Download Fedora". I'm not sure that is even required that you choose something there if you click on "Browse" and use the SoaS beta .iso. Questions: 1. Can I create the thumbdrive on an XP - not boot on the XP but directly try to boot it on the Ubuntu Dell netbook? I tried that and it will not boot. (yes, I changed the boot sequence to boot on USB). 2. Do I have to create the thumbdrive on the Ubuntu netbook using the instructions for Linux. I suck at Linux so I'm trying to avoid that as I'm not sure it has all required packages and I'm trying not to mess with the machine as it's not mine. 3. Has anyone else successfully gotten a thumbdrive to boot on this particular Dell Inspiron 910 netbook running Ubuntu? 4. Should I try to create a bootable SD card instead? Overall I have only two questions that have been answered but hasn't gotten through my thick skull. 1. I realize that using Fedora 11 is part of SoaS-2 but is there an actual different SoaS .iso in the making for version 2 or is simply using the current beta of SoaS and loading it on Fedora 11 (using the Download Fedora on the right side of the Live USB Creator) automatically making it a SoaS-2 version. 2. What are the various "Download Fedora" options? What is an i686? When should the Sugar on a Stick option be used? I think this is a case of too many options and a newbie so sorry about that. Sorry to be a bother and thanks for any help, Kathy
