[BETA] v0.1.5-pre-release-20161216
#5
is the link only for NUC or Macs ?

Edit... tried it on Acer 64bit laptop... boots to desktop then the ubiquity installer appears. Lshw shows a Broadcom Bcm5787 and trying sudo apt-get update for kicks and..... it works ! The crowd goes wild ! Excellent... will try installing and report.

Just one thing, when I shutdown the live environment there is an alert...'you have to choose a software player' briefly... 

The first ever machine I tried Snakeoil on loaded, booted, installed, and runs fine Smile (very old dual-core desktop).
Since then I've tried 8 laptops (yes I have a junk pile... my wife often points this out)
In most cases I can get the live image running, sometimes even looks like the networking is recognised, but never able to connect and never when installed.

I'm waiting for an old HP thinclient to arrive...Intel Atom N280 but the network chip is Broadcom and it's only a 32-bit processor.. Sad

Might just have to load Volumio x86 temporarily until 0.1.5 is released and try again.
