I just discovered the great feature that the 4 GB USB containing
Soas-v3-Mirabelle can be run interchangeably on a PC or a mac with
either VMPlayer or Virtualbox.
This is an install using liveinst in sugar terminal to the VM's Hard Disk.
It is no longer a live file system with a persistence overlay
All I am doing is copying the 8 resulting files:
nvram
Soas-v3-Mirabelle.log
''Soas-v3-Mirabelle.vmdk <- Use this file
Soas-v3-Mirabelle.vmsd
Soas-v3-Mirabelle.vmx
Soas-v3-Mirabelle.vmxf
Soas-v3-Mirabelle-s001.vmdk
Soas-v3-Mirabelle-s002.vmdk
Soas-v3-Mirabelle-s003.vmdk
on the 4 GB 2nd USB and running them from there with either VMPlayer or
VirtualBox 3.2 for OSX or Ubuntu
The common interface is provided by the virtual host.
(Note: this also works for Windoz XP Pro.: It does not need to be
re-authorized as it senses no change when run on another OS and/or PC
due to t6he common interface provided by the virtual host.)
Please test it really works well.

Yes. This is a common feature of all USB bootable Linux builds.
Therefore the instructions for doing so are no longer Mac specific,
but rather generic. A virtual host emulates a common environment.
