Why it's separate

Don't merge with Activity pack. I think mstone made this separate so it can be transcluded into other pages—until a week ago the same set of instructions appeared in lots of different pages. Transclusion makes sense to me. -- Skierpage 03:16, 26 May 2008 (EDT)

Installing under an emulator?

How about instructions for qemu users? pengo 23:12, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

FLash Drive

Does the flash drive have to be empty save for this package?

A: No.

Instructions don't work for secure machines?

I have a secure machine (haven't gotten a developer key yet), but I still had to hold the X game button to get the activities to load. However, I didn't want to change the "official" instructions yet, as it may be something I'm doing that's abnormal. -- User:Peterm, 3 August 2008

Interesting. I too found activities wouldn't load from USB flash drive when I upgraded my secure (no developer key) machine from Ship.1 (build 650) to 8.1.0 ("Update.1", build 703). I never tried holding down the X button. -- Skierpage 03:06, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
