Hello: I'm sorry to have taken so long to answer
The fastest aproach was number 3, considering my lack of bandwidth, :( I installed a fresh soas strawberry on a usb, as explained in the sugar labs wiki, the live stick works fine. I downloaded the extra packages.. gedit wget liveusb-creator anaconda .. and the ran "liveinst" 3-) Use "livinst" command (Anaconda) to install to a hard disk (or USB 4-8GB > needed) > * It is on the USB > The liveinst throws a lot of errors regarding lack of space and incomptible filesystems, so i manually crated the disk layout, and than when prompted, y used a customized the installation. Everything appeared to have worked, i booted into my newly installed system, and i doesn start sugar, i just shows the bash login That was expected, since i didn't configure any users i created a user, with it's home, and groups for administration and some other stuff.. and i got stuck there. I use the "startx" command and throws a lot of errors and fails, most of them related to xkbcomp but says that are not fatal to the X server, and yet it fails I'm gonna try the other approaches sometime this week/weekend thanks.. cheers..
