I am running Soas2 on XO but it has problems. No sound, Browser crashing, no wget. And I just killed this long weekend so far by converting ISO (including Soas2) into a bootable SD that can run on XO or otherwise. I ported the Fedora usility to SuSE so I can run it home on SuSE, at least I have a way of generating Live Soas2 USB's as quickly as the Soas es are published.<br>
