v0.1.4 (Cryo Treatment) - agent_kith - 28-May-2016 Official release of firmware 0.1.4 (Codename: Cryo Treatment). Introducing the first 64 bit firmware! Due to missing libraries, 32 bit firmware will not work on 64 bit Snakeoil machine, and vice versa. Please make sure you download the right version for your installation. Go to the Home tab to find the correct architecture to download: i686 or x86_64. Download: ![]() ![]() Changes since 0.1.3 (Cable Lifter)
RE: v0.1.4 (Cryo Treatment) - Leonard - 29-May-2016 Thanks for providing this new firmware! However in my case I was unable to install the x86_64 version. For some reason my CPU gets identified as i686 in the 'Home' tab. By checking this manually (uname -m) I also get the same result. the processormodel itself was correctly identified as 'i5 4460T' using 'cat /proc/cpuinfo'. This is strange as the Intel i5-4460T processor is of course 64 bit. And if I check the processor on the same machine (and same BIOS settings), but now using Xubuntu as OS, I get x86_64. Can it be that this is caused by the fact that Snakeoil is 32bit and thus the processor is already running in 32 bit mode? Unfortunatly I couldn't revert back to an earlier version of the firmware as I got an error message. RE: v0.1.4 (Cryo Treatment) - a.dent - 29-May-2016 I'm looking forward to updating to the 64 bit OS but will watch Leonard's progress first. OK so I was too impatient. 64 bit seems to have loaded OK but does this look correct? ![]() There are no players available on the software page to choose from. ![]() Is this my fault? Oh and obviously the top menu has reverted to the original one so no Snakeoil tab RE: v0.1.4 (Cryo Treatment) - agent_kith - 29-May-2016 (29-May-2016, 06:37 AM)Leonard Wrote: Thanks for providing this new firmware!My bad, I should have been more clear in the first post. You cannot install the 64 bit firmware on to the 32 bit Snakeoil because there are mising libraries for it to do so. 0.1.4 will check this but older versions can't. The 0.1.4 ISO will be available in a few minutes. Download the 64 bit ISO, and change the USB media to persistent boot up and all will be fine.

I should have made that more clear, and put it in red - You can't mix different architectures, 32 bit snakoil needs 32 bit firmware and same thing for 64 bit. To use RoonBridge, you'd need to download and install the 64 bit Snakeoil ISO, which will be available in a few minutes. Edit: BTW, there is no need to install this 0.1.4 firmware after you have installed Snakeoil 0.1.4 ISO, as the firmware are the same. I'm including the 64 bit link here for people to roll back from a future pre-release version. RE: v0.1.4 (Cryo Treatment) - a.dent - 29-May-2016 I read that bit before the change to red and I didn't really "click" about what it meant. I tried going back to back to 32 bit firmware but it looks the same. I think I've mucked up ![]() ![]() RE: v0.1.4 (Cryo Treatment) - agent_kith - 29-May-2016 (29-May-2016, 08:51 AM)a.dent Wrote: I read that bit before the change to red and I didn't really "click" about what it meant. Not a problem. I'd send you a email on how to recover it.. Having said that, if you want to use RoonBridge, you'd still need to install 64 bit version though (probably do it on another CFast card).

I was thinking of installing the 64 bit version on a spare 120Gb SSD I have here. I'd still like to go back to the 32 bit version on this SSD though, just in case. I'm not sure if my motherboard is even 64 bit ATM. It may be but how can I tell? I tried to update from the Jetway website but couldn't even boot into DOS so computer illiteratacy problems.

I have sent an email to both you and Leonard on how to restore the 32 bit files back, and it should work again, let me know if there are any other issues. |
