Peter: I just tested soas-i386-20100328.17.iso
As a 2GB Firefly USB formated fat16 labeled FEDORA (before use) Using Ubuntu 9.04 terminal sudo su password: su -c "livecd-iso-to-disk --format --reset-mbr /home/xxxx/Desktop/soas-i386-20100328.17.iso /dev/sdg" It boots fine on a EeePC900 Problem is that IRC application has not been fixed yet... it gives popup : "IRC failed to start" [Stop] The fix is that sebastian acknowledged was to be done. cd /usr/share/sugar/activities/ rm -R IRC.activity and step thru all files to delete until application is removed Use Browse to go to ASLO (activities) search for irc do download now Now IRC starts fine I think the problem is the installed xoirc is version 6 the downloaded irc.xo is version 5 (they seem to be distinctly different applications) Tom Gilliard satellit Peter Robinson wrote: > Hi All, > > Having had some feedback on the proposal of shipping just 6 Activities > for SoaS 3 I'm modifying the proposal a little and increasing the > number to 10 [1].
