Glad to hear it works, I'm going to try it this weekend on my XO. I wonder if we could get the release team to execute these steps automatically for each release, and then make .img files available on downloads.sugarlabs.org along with the .iso files? That would skip a lot of potential mistakes that users might make, and would lower the barrier to entry (e.g. no Fedora or Ubuntu machine req).
The same goes for .vmdk files, I would love to have .vmdk files created using http://sugarlabs.org/go/Sugar_on_a_Stick_VirtualBox/Preparing_a_disk_image available for each snapshot.
