Re: Boot issues with Sugar On A Stick

[Peter Robinson]

Please leave the Arm list on the replies.

My name is Peter.

I've emailed the sugar list to see if they're aware of the F-31
problem and asked them to resolve it if so.

Boot issues with Sugar On A Stick

Hi Peter - My apologies about getting your name wrong.  :/

Thank you very much for your help - this project is for the Bristol Public
library, so you are not just helping me, you are helping the community of
Bristol TN/VA.  :)

Thanks again,

Garry Wakely

That's cool! Once you have everything up and running, would you be
interested in writing an article about it for Fedora Magazine

I believe this was fixed for the final F-31 release, did you get a
