Yeah, Fedora (and I guess other distros) doesn't ship with sudo activated by default :( But you should be able to do the same by using su instead of sudo: su -c 'cp somefile /etc/.' Or "su -" to get into a root shell. I have heard that latest experimental SoaS images have sudo installed by default, so in the next release sudo will work fine in SoaS as well.
