Endless Ubuntu Installation? - merterbalci - 20-Sep-2018
Hi Everyone! When i try to install Blind Test to my T520 Thin Client,

Once installation is complete, remember to remove the install media (CD/DVD or USB stick), and make sure to check the BIOS/EFI that the medium you installed Snakeoil on is one of the first devices to boot up from.
Once you've done the above two checks your installed Snakeoil OS will boot up.
Let me know how this goes.

Hey Kith thank you, i'm in now!
But there is another problem; Paypal has banned in Turkey i cannot donate for your effort.
Is there another payment method?
Because i need more than one mount point.

The donations is used to fund the operating costs of running this site and more (e.g. stuffs like the RPi3 B+). Right now there should be sufficient funds to cover the short term operating costs so donations isn't necessary at this stage.

The OS is not locked down and you have free reign to do what you want with it. e.g. to add more than one mount point you need to modify a file called /etc/fstab. You can look up the Internet on how to do this.
Sure it's not as easy to do when compared to the WebApp, but the upside is it's a lot more fun.
