Those are two commands, separated by a semicolon. They could also be
done on separate lines (as two commands). cd ~/Downloads navigates to
your Downloads folder. You could also use ls to see what's inside.
Then the second command does the actual image writing.

Some have expressed concern about Browse and its current xulrunner

worse for the future, Mozilla plans to get rid of XPCOM at some point in
favour of better JavaScript interfacing to C++ and a JavaScript ffi similar
to ctypes.

My major concern against porting to Android is that Java is a horrible
language, even with the nice Android libs. Google have said that they
will add more languages, though.
A more long term solution would be using PyPy, since it has

Perhaps, but to me it seems a very good option, especially when
compared to requiring a helper CD and an arcane key press combination
. rEFIt is tiny and quite useful by itself, since the default apple
bootloader doesn't offer any feedback.

And is distinguishing between other linux distros and Sugar even desirable?
My macbook is off to be repaired so I can't test, but AFAIK both the

rEFIt http://refit.sourceforge.net/ is akin to GRUB, but nicer. It
detects and shows all boot options.

WebDAV is very nice at a first look, but its implementations are so
radically different, that using it across OSes is often hopeless (from

I use a lot of it and have made small contributions.
