Configuration for Debian Live Build to make a Sugar Live Build

Sugar Live Build

Introduction

Welcome to Sugar Live Build! This makes a complete bootable image containing Sugar, the Sugar toolkits, and the demonstration activities.

• It can be booted from hard drive, flash drive, and optical media, automatically starting Sugar without persistence;

• It can be installed as a virtual machine, with persistence and password protection,

• It contains all build dependencies, configured source trees (git clones in /usr/src), and binaries (make install) for Sugar modules and the demonstration activity set.

If you're looking for a pre-built ISO file see Downloads.

How to build

1. Install Debian Stretch;

2. Clone this repository;

git clone https://github.com/sugarlabs/sugar-live-build.git

3. Run the build script.

./build

This will take some time to process; at the end you will have a file ending with .hybrid.iso, which is your iso-bootable file.

How to add activities

1. Open the build script with your prefered text editor.

2. For each activity you want to add to your live image, add the following line to to the build script in the clone section. Replace the URL of the git repository with the URL of repository of the activity you are adding and replace ActivityName with the name of the activity you are adding. Be sure to use .activity as the suffix.

   clone https://github.com/username/link-to-repository.git ActivityName.activity
