[BETA] v0.1.5-pre-release-20161216

[Bromf]

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... 

That message is normal, it'd disappear after you have selected a music player from the software tab.
 

The first ever machine I tried Snakeoil on loaded, booted, installed, and runs fine (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.

There are several problems with how networking is detected in the old ISOs, hopefully all resolved in 0.1.5. Also your DHCP server could be an issue. If you can, try another DHCP server and see how it goes.

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..

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

Don't think Volumio will work with a 32 bit UFI environment. The only setup that I am aware of that's 32 bit UFI is the old Macs from before 2006. However I could be wrong here. Regardless please test on as many platforms as you can and report back. thanks in advance.

Scratched my head for a while....I don't have anything with U(E)FI ... I want to run Snakeoil on the Thinclient...It is conventional bios and runs x86 other linux ok apparently. I am looking forward to 0.1.5 32 bit as that should run on it
Meanwhile, until then I will try Volumio x86 on the thinclient.
Your linked 64bit 0.1.5 loks like it will run on standard bios if the acer laptop I tried it on is any indication so I will try that installed  on the laptop and report.
