how to create a .zd file
by Juliano Bittencourt
Hi all,
Sorry the newbie question, but how do I create a .zd file from
an .img? Here in Rwanda my internet is so slow that requires several
days to download a new image. The best solution is to build the images
locally keeping cache of the rpms. This allows that any changes be
done quickly. However I didn't found documented anywhere how to create
the file for fs-update.
Thanks,
Juliano

Why does Sugar mount removable volumes ?
by Mikus Grinbergs
I have the subdirectories for some Activities installed on my
"permanent" SD card (it's in the "external" slot of my XO-1.5).
Os42 is not mounting (at boot) my "permanent" SD card. I
experimented with removing the SD card's entry from /etc/fstab.
The first time sugar came up (after boot), it did not show the
activities on my SD card in Home View - because that SD card was not
yet mounted at the time sugar started. I did ctl-alt-erase to
restart sugar. Now sugar came up *showing* those activities.
What I believe happened: 1) Because the system did not mount the SD
card, sugar the first time could not "link" to the activities on it.
2) But sugar itself mounted all removable volumes accessible by
the machine, including my SD card. 3) So when sugar started the
second time, those activities could be "linked", and sugar showed them.
My question -- how come Sugar mounts *all* removable volumes ?

some os42 impressions
by Mikus Grinbergs
I've noticed "time-outs-from-the-game" with os40 that I had not
noticed before. For instance, when I boot with the check game key,
the boot process simply stops for more than 50 seconds (just after a
message about rtc) before continuing. Sometimes quite trivial
commands just stop for a noticeable number of seconds (garbage
collection?). And once when I was editing in 'vi', it took about
two seconds between a keypress, and the character appearing on the
screen.
Also, shutdown seems to remove the directory from /media on which a
removable volume is mounted. [Before os42, shutdown would remove
such a directory if it was created by automount, but *not* if it had
been manually created by the user.] The effect is that my
"permanent" SD card is no longer being mounted when I boot, even
though I have an entry for it in /etc/fstab

Help, please - how to put a build on an USB stick so that it will boot on an XO ?
by Mikus Grinbergs
I do not have a Fedora system. I've been using 'livecd-iso-to-disk'
script for building USB sticks from .iso files. But that never has
worked for me with XO-1.5 builds. And just now it failed with a
recent XO-1 build. [Booting stalls - can't mount root filesystem.]
A while ago I read a complicated procedure to build an USB stick
from a tree.tar.lzma file -- now I can't find that description.
Please - how do I build a bootable USB stick, for example from the
os40_build files ? [Preferably using just an XO-1 for this.]
Thanks, mikus

new version of Fedora liveusb-creator has dropped SoaS v1 Strawberry
by Sean DALY
Hi,
i just noticed that liveusb-creator was updated a few days ago, to
v3.8.6 - thanks
I'm concerned though that the official Sugar on a Stick v1 Strawberry
ISO was dropped from the list. It's of course helpful that a beta
version of v2 Blueberry is on the list, but Strawberry remains our
latest stable version until Blueberry (which will be our latest stable
version until v3, etc). Liveusb-creator is a critical component in
getting Sugar on a Stick out to Windows users.
May i ask that v1 Strawberry be returned to the dropdown list please?
thanks

Newer sugar package?
by Martin Langhoff
The Sugar rpm on our F11 images is 0.84.5 (and updates/updates-testing
doesn't seem to carry anything newer).
SL has in the interim released 0.84.6 with some bugfixes and
translation. Additionally there are several "unreleased" bugfixen on
the 0.84 branch after that release. One at least is affecting us
(SL#1098).
Are there plans from the Fedora side to include a newer sugar from the
0.84 series? Is this something we're looking at packaging?
What 0.84.6 brings:
Tomeu Vizoso (2):
Initialize the ResultSet after the widget changes size #733
Only update the connections file when the AP changes state #756
What is unreleased in the branch:
Aleksey Lim (2):
Fix .xoj support #1098
Upgrade activities that were installed from bundles #1176
Tomeu Vizoso (1):
Remake the cache when the DS returns an unexpected amount of entries
