Comment:

 From the distro POV, what it's doing is correct.

 Sugar wants something special however - that the disk gets mounted in a
 way that allows us to write to the root. Perhaps that's not a reasonable
 thing to do...?

 From that POV, perhaps Sugar should see if it can write to the root of the
 disk, and if it cannot, do not write the hidden index file there (not
 write it at all, or place it /tmp )
