This is the same issue I've raised twice before - with no response. I've
copied Luke Macken, creator of LiveUSB Creator, as well.
The problem is what has been keeping me from testing my activities with 0.90
SoaS.
Can anything be done about this?

Testing SOAS 4 Mango Lassi on a 32-bit PC.
Image used is Fedora-14-i686-Live-SoaS.iso and installed using Fedora
LiveUSB Creator 3.9.2 on a 2GB flashdrive that has been tested OK with
Marabelle. I used 498 MB of persistent storage.
Tried in two different computers, reformatted (FAT) and tried again.
All I get is this on boot (below), it does not proceed any further...... I
guess maybe I have the wrong iso or something??

Great News;
Fedora-14-x86_64-Live-SoaS CD Boots fine on an Apple MacBook Air with an
external hp-DVD/CD usb drive.
Hold "C" and tap power button keep holding the "C" key down until the
blue fedora boot screen appears
Select Boot (Basic Video)-second line
boots to bar display Fedora 14; (Name_____); Choose password for new
keyring; hit cancel 6 times.
F3 Ring appears
Use the usb to cat 5 Air dongle ( applesmc.78) as Network Manager does
not recognize the Mac Air's wireless hardware.
f1 neighborhood will be full of xxxxxxx...@jabber.sugarlabs.org names
To fix this go to drop down / My settings /About me. change colors and
restart. On restart the names will be correct.
ONLY IF you enter the key chain password you entered 1 time when you
started sugar.
These are known bugs

Hi All,
This is the non announcement announcement of the release of Sugar on a
Stick 4 Mango Lassi is out.
You can download both the 32 and 64 bit version from
http://spins.fedoraproject.org/soas/
There's an outline of some common bugs in Fedora 14 and hence Fedora
14 outlined here
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Common_F14_bugs
Some of the notable enhancements include:
- Sugar 0.90
- Support for more wireless adapters including the rtl2xxx series of
adapters that are common in eee PCs
- Improved Apple Mac support (still needs SoaS verification as
apparently its a major problem but I could only find Fedora people to
test it for me)
- Quite a lot of things that I can't remember
I would like to thank Sebastian, Mel, Simon, Thomas and everyone else
who has contributed to this release.
Cheers,
Peter
