However, when configuring the advanced settings with:</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>> Advanced - QEMU Arguments: type "-redir tcp:2222::22" (without quotes)</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>as instructed by the wiki, Q.app would not start from the disk image and instead gave the cryptic warning "Syntax Error" no matter what I tried. Removing this line from the advanced arguments, Q.app did boot up from the disk image, but I did not get a GRUB screen as the wiki said. Following the steps listed on <A href="http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Sugar_Instructions">http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Sugar_Instructions</A>, what happened instead of seeing the GRUB loader was the linux bootup. After that, it asked me for a login name that would not except anything but the name 'root' with no password. I got a terminal as root then, but I was not able to proceed with seeing Sugar any further.</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>My platform details are:</DIV><DIV>12" Aluminum G4 1.33 GHz</DIV><DIV>756 MB Memory</DIV><DIV>OS X version 10.4.8</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>If anyone has any hints as to what I might be doing wrong, I would be very appreciative!</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>Another question I have concerns keyboard layout.
