Using Snakeoil on a Minnowboard TurboT

[agent_kith]

I'm having trouble opening the liveUSB drive to replace the new kernel. Windows won't open. My Mac won't open. And my ArchLinux can't open it. I managed to open and replace the Vmlinuz on a drive that already have a fully configured Snakeoil running on it and that worked, but still wouldn't boot on my Minnowboard. Not sure if it's because it needs to be done right on the ISO before configuration or not.

Oh, as this was a test kernel, I forgotten to give you the instructions that's mentioned in the thread. The manual for replacing the install kernel is here.

Honestly don't expect it to work straight away as there are probably multiple hurdles. But connect a monitor to the screen, and see how it goes, and if there are any errors, take a screenshot and put it here.

I'm working both days this weekend so don't have access to computers and such. But if you can provide a screenshot of where it fails, and provide as much information as you can. When I get back home tonight hopefully I can spin up another kernel for you to test.

Right now I am doing this manually. Luckily there are not enough snakeoil users to make this a real problem, so it's still ok, as long as you are patient.

In future I hope to automate all this.

Have a default kernel in the ISO that works on everything, then you can go to a menu and select custom kernel. Tick the things you want, and it will send your config somewhere else for processing, and you'd get an email asking you to download the kernel.. How sweet is that?


Absolute wizardary!

Unfortunately constrained by time and money. Already set up the system in place to get the money (Google Ads, PayPal, Patreon) in place. Time is the bigger problem. While I can pay money out of my own pockets to get this system hosted on Amazon cloud. I just don't have the time to do all this yet.
