1. I and someone else updated http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Live_CD , taking 
the opportunity to clean up some of the other Live CDs here.
2. I added this to http://wiki.laptop.org/go/LiveBackup_XO-LiveCD as well.
3. I updated the broken livecd link in 
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Template:Latest_Releases (the green box on 
many wiki pages) to point to 2.

(I suggest you use ISO 8601 date format in the future.  081106 looks 
like August 11th 2006 to us clueless North Americans, "2008-11-06" has 
no ambiguity for anyone anywhere.  Also, release notes as a 310kB PDF?!)

Dumb question: what is the difference between a .iso and a .img file 
like http://download.laptop.org/xo-1/custom/g1g1/gg-767-4/gg-767-4.img ? 
  Can you mechanically transform one into the other? 1. says "copy [a 
.iso] to a prepared USB flash drive" but presumably it's not that simple.

1. links to that, it also links to the sugar-jhbuild liveCD page 
http://www.sugarlabs.org/go/Live_CD , which the sugarlabs #Starch 
section doesn't mention.


I need to go to a trade show to get USB flash drives and SD cards for 
all these live CDs and Linux distros and SqueakNOS... :)
