I cannot install the HQ Player, because it asks me for SSE 4.1.
You can install an Intel emulator "CPU without SSE4.2" but I don't know how to do it ....
Intel's page is:

Thanks and regards

Hi there

I'm trying out Snakeoil to see if better (improved/different?) SQ than Windows 10 for Roon Bridge.

Roon Core is on a Windows 10 machine which I'm not proposing to change.  That feeds various Roon end points, one in particular to my main system. End point is a Intel® Celeron® CPU J1900 with RAAT (Roon Bridge) installed under Windows 10 Pro.

Wanting to change this Windows instance to Snakeoil.

Have installed Snakeoil on a new SDD on the J1900 device, updated to  1.1.7 (Blind Testing U7)  and working just fine.  Accessing via browser via http://192.168.1.148/#/pages/dashboard etc.

However I'm unclear on install of Roon Bridge.

From the Snakeoil Wiki I see:

https://www.snakeoil-os.net/forums/Threa...RoonBridge

However in Roonlabs I see a different process.

see:  http://kb.roonlabs.com/LinuxInstall

Confused.

Also, just for testing, I try to mount a CIFS mount (to the Windows machine holding my music) in the format \\server\Music (with username and password) however I get an error message saying not possible in trial mode.  Or somesuch message.

Appreciate any feedback on these two points (Roon Bridge and CIFS) please. Only testing things now.  Do I need to 'donate' to enable things?  Can I donate a small amount for a limited period (so I can test things properly)?

cheers
Edward

Hello,
I can not install the firmware 1.1.7 by dragging and dropping. I always get the following error:

SHA1SUM:


*** ERROR *** Uploaded file missing, upload aborted?
*** ERROR *** Uploaded file missing, upload aborted?

What am I doing wrong, or can I install it manually?
greetings

Hi there

New user trying to install Snake Oil OS.  Forgive me if this covered elsewhere (I did search).

Getting "Kernel Panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! exitcode=0x0000000b"

Steps taken:

- Using latest SnakeOil ISO i686-1.1.iso.
- Loaded on 8gb flash drive with Rufus.
- Ensure SATA AHCI mode is enabled (it was).
- Using i7 HP Pavilion, boot to menu, choose SnakeOil GUI (also did SnakeOil Ram option).
- Ends in Kernal Panic error as stated.  Machine locks up.

Any ideas?

Am trying to create SSD with SnakeOil OS on it using the i7 machine for configuring etc.  Once done I will transfer SSD over to headless ITX machine (currently used as Roon End Point using RAAT on Windows 10 Pro).  Aim is to establish if SQ better using SnakeOil OS as compared to Windows 10.

Overall config:  Roon Core (on Windows 10 server) > ethernet > Mini ITX (Windows 10 with Roon RAAT) > USB > Metrum DAC > LDR Pre > Radford Valve > Tannoy Berkeley. 

Cheers

Just for completeness I tried the USB flashdrive in both a USB 2 and USB 3 slot.  The flashdrive itself is USB2.  Same kernel panic error.
