Re: [Sugar-devel] sugar live boot is not persistent.

2022-04-16 Thread James Cameron
Perhaps you mean Sugar Live Build.

Sugar Live Build contains both Python 2 and Python 3 environment for
Sugar, which makes it very easy to port Python 2 activities to Python
3, because you can compare execution of the Python 2 activity with
your in-progress Python 3 port.  Python 2 is no longer available in
Fedora for using Sugar, so do not use SoaS unless you have finished
the porting.

It looks like you have been booting Sugar Live Build rather than
installing it.  That is just one of many ways to use Sugar Live Build.

To install Sugar Live Build, create a virtual machine with a virtual
disk, boot from the ISO file, and as soon as the virtual machine shows
the boot menu, be sure to select "Install".  See attached.

This will start installation of Debian on the virtual disk.  See
attached.

You will be asked a series of questions, such as language, location,
and keyboard.  Additional components will be loaded.  Then further
questions; host name, domain name, new root password, new user
account, and clock time zone.  Then for a virtual disk partitioning
question choose "Guided - use entire disk", "All files in one
partition", and "Finish partitioning and write changes to disk".

There are other questions, but these are normal Debian questions, so
the best way to answer them is to understand the question by reading
the Debian documentation.  They aren't Sugar questions.

Eventually the system will be installed on the virtual disk.

When the virtual machine is rebooted, log in with the new user
account, and Sugar will be started.

For development, set up an IDE on your main computer, set up SSH
access into the virtual machine, and begin editing files on the
virtual disk from your main computer.  Exactly how to do this depends
on the IDE you have chosen, and so we can't really go into detail
unless it is an IDE we use.

Re: [Sugar-devel] GSoC 2022 Draft Proposal (Maintaining 6 activities)

2022-04-16 Thread James Cameron
Thanks, that's interesting.  I have a few suggestions.

1.  your work so far indicates you are likely to be able to do much
more than what you have listed in the proposal; you may wish to add
stretch goals in case you have free time,

2.  you've mentioned release to ASLO v4 as something you want to
enable; you may instead include release in each of your goals,

3.  the organisation name has a space between Sugar and Labs; if
there's anywhere we aren't doing that (apart from the domain name,
GitHub organisation name, and a logo on our web site), please let us
know.

Good luck!

Re: [Sugar-devel] sugar live boot is not persistent.

Hi Umesh,

Live disk[1] is ephemeral. If you need a persistent install, you might 
want to install it to a virtual disk. I assume you are using SoaS (Sugar 
on a Stick) Fedora derivative live CD. Perhaps try running `liveinst` 
from the Terminal.Activity or a TTY.
