I just tried the usb stick install from the thin client and tried to update the 0.8.4 firmware....
It failed saying this is a 'demo mode and cant run that operation'...???

Is that USB a installed version, or LiveCD version? Updating a LiveCD is not goinig to work.

Don't use 0.8.4 for now as the optimisations caused a function to crash. Stick with 0.8.3 for now, a updated beta firmware will be released in the next few days. 

Still waiting on more information from @Major why process priority isn't working.
usb is installed version.

On my main snakeoil install I just tried to add 0.8.3 over it's current 0.8.4 and got a "Please wait, install is about to begin..." then nothing happens. Guess firmwares can't be rolled back ???

That's the bug in 0.8.4. Big Grin Yes in most cases software can be rolled back..

I'd have instructions on how to do that when 0.8.5 is ready. For now the only issue is 0.8.4 is that update process, everything else is ok.
Latest beta firmware 0.8.5. Please refer to first post for the firmware download links.

Please note the instructions below is only for 64 bit systems only, and only for the 5 running 0.8.4. Nobody has downloaded the 32 bits 0.8.4 firmware so DO NOT run these commands if you are on 32 bit SnakeoilOS.

For the 5 people who have downloaded the 0.8.4 64 bits firmware, please follow this snippet here: Link
sudo cp snakeoil-rest /usr/local/sbin
cp: cannot create regular file '/usr/local/sbin/snakeoil-rest': Text file busy

Try this instead:
 
Code:
sudo cp snakeoil-rest /usr/local/sbin -f

Remember to do a reboot. Once you're on 0.8.5, please let me know if you still have problems with priority settings not applied after a reboot. Thumbs Up
REST server is not responding.  :(

My bad, missed out two more commands:
 
Code:
sudo chown root:root /usr/local/sbin/snakeoil-rest
sudo chmod 755 /usr/local/sbin/snakeoil-rest

After you run the above, it should be running again. Once the server is up and running, apply the 0.8.5 firmware file to get the latest web updates.
