Caryl;
Your EeePC900 has windows= hard to use
To do a lot of what I describe in the wiki :
http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Category:Live_USB#FEDORA_based_Live_USB.27s
You need to run linux
buy a cheap Seagate free agent or similar usb external HD (250 GB or
smaller)
(available in office max or staples usually on sale ~$60.00)
on another machine or with an external usb DVD/CD writer
Boot with a fedora 12 install CD
http://fedoraproject.org/get-fedora
and install to the external USB drive.
Transfer the external drive to the EeePC and start it
Hit <ESC> key during boot
select the USB drive and start fedora
in Terminal:
su
password
yum install liveusb-creator
(you can even install Sugar as a separate desktop on it)
yum install sugar*
Then all of the features described in the wiki will be easy to use...

Hi All,
In my experiments trying to create usable SoaS sticks, I have had a few flops.
Unfortunately these USB sticks now have a severe "identity crisis." They
believe they are actually CDs. You can't write to them. You can't rename them (at least
not in a way a mere mortal like me knows how to do). Do I have to just junk them (like
throwing away money... not good). Or, is there an easy way to reformat them and start
all over? Maybe even a hard way?
Thanks,
Caryl
