Debated whether to start a new thread or post here. I spent a day trying to install SnakeOil on a 8th Gen Intel NUC, with no success. I tried using Rufus, with and without DD, and a few others as well. Had to enable legacy boot on the NUC and went round in circles with different errors including Grub errors, could not find live image file etc. I am guessing but maybe some of my problems are with the NUC having USB 3 ports only and my usb sticks were USB 2??? And yes, I did include the Intel network card workaround. I have some basic Linux knowledge but no way enough to work out how to get the install working. And will not be able to do what was posted earlier in this thread.
I was hoping to use SnakeOil as a super light weight Minimserver server to do heavy duty convolution, transcoding. I do hope that one day, SnakeOil will install out of the box with an Intel NUC.
