  • Reflash a copy of Ubuntu server for Raspberry Pi
  • In the settings, do not fill in your wifi details.
These 2 steps seem to have fixed the networking issue. ubuntu is now installed and networking is active.

i@rpi4:~$ wget -qLO - \

You cannot use 24.10.  Please use 24.04 Server

Yup. It's really not worth supporting 24.10 (EOL July 2025) or 25.04 (EOL Jan 2026).

Technically I can support older LTS but IMHO 22, 20 and 18 don't sound good so honestly I am not going to bother rebuilding Snakeoil on these versions again.

Also I cannot remember if 16 or 14 is the better sounding one - however these are EOL'ed also so I don't think it's a good idea to support them. Fun fact I think some of the existing productions solutions I worked before in my past jobs are still on 14.04...

Right now 24.04 is at a level I'm pretty happy right now - just that the audio signature is more on the "steel/cold" side of things. If I have time to find a RT kernel that can give it a tad more warmth without changing interconnects, then it will likely be the best sounding system I have ever accomplished for my setup.

FWIW, for my ears, SO is as warm as I'd like.

Finally got snake oil running on rpi4 after installing 24.04. Need to figure out how to mount pcloud drive. (online NAS)

Might be the silver cables I'm using...

These cables I have just give me a lot of clarity, however there's a lot of glare to it..

You might have to do this outside the snakeoil WebApp, try to lookup how to add your partitions by modifying /etc/fstab file.
Will improve the WebApp to support more file systems in a future update. The WebApp was created at a time when we're still using custom kernels and that part of the code hasn't been updated now that we have moved to non snakeoil kernels now.
