I see that I need to use max 800x600 images. If I wanted to remove all the <h1></h1> from every slide I should do it more carefully. I did wonder if <h1></h1> is *required*, but I think not. I should get all the words saved, before adding images. The opposite of what I tried! I am guessing that the "Style" must be decided and set, before starting work. I am not sure how to optimise the location of the images before starting work. When you brought up the subject, I had been playing with Sugarizing http://www.w3.org/Talks/Tools/Slidy2/Overview.html#%281%29 - it would probably be a long time before *I* had it ready to share though! > > [Now on topic] > I was just wondering, can that command you used be used to move it to > the hdd?

I am not sure if I have tried that, I imagine it would work. An advantage of a hdd install is that, I think, the uncompressed image *sometimes* seems to handle auto-saving the Journal better. In my experience you need more patience with a USB stick than with hdd install. Liveinst is the command I would use for a hdd install. hdd install is good for using an old "spare" machine, but I think that the philosophy of a child having their very own learning environment by a USB stick is one I would like to try to make more easy for new sugar learners.
