Installation
Snakeoil 1.2.x and greater
Snakeoil 1.1.x and lower
- Select The ISO/IMG to Download
- Create Boot Media
- Preparing your computer
- Live CD
- Installing Snakeoil
Back To Main
Snakeoil OS 1.1.x (Gear Isolation) is one of the best sounding operating system for audiophiles out there. However, the uncompromising sound quality also comes with uncompromising drawbacks!
- Limited hardware support
- Customised mainly for the Jetway series of motherboards
- Ubuntu 16.04 LTS is about to be EOL in April 2021
The next evolution of Snakeoil OS is now de-coupled mostly from the underlying Operating System, and thus addresses all the uncompromsing points above.
Supported Distributions
These are the officially supported, more will be added in the future:
- Ubuntu (Installation Guide)
- Raspbery Pi Raspbian (** Pending **)
Download the "Server" edition where possible as Snakeoil OS is designed to run headless. Not using a Graphical UI will conserve valuable resources and improve overall responsiveness of your PC.
Steps To Install Snakeoil
Follow these steps to run Snakeoil OS on your PC
Install Your Choice Operating System
Follow the installation guide of your choice OS and install it on your computer. If prompted, install the SSH server.
Note the following details during installation as you will need them later:
- The IP address of your computer
- The user login
- The user password
Install SSH
If you havn't already, install SSH server, for Ubuntu systems, the command is:
apt install -y openssh-server
Download the Snakeoil Installer
Now you need to transfer the Snakeoil Installer to this newly installed computer.
Go to the Snakeoil Forums and look for the latest Snakeoil installer
here are many ways to skin a cat, here are two:
Upload Installer to Music PC
You can transfer the installer to your Snakeoil computer using tools like WinSCP. Folow their guide on how to upload files.
Direct Download To Music PC
From your computer (or via SSH), run the following command, and replace url_of_installer with actual URL.

The installer will download additional packages from your distro so ensure you have Internet connectivity before running this step. On your Snakeoil computer, go to the directory where you have placed the Snakeoil installer, and execute the installer like so:
sudo ./snakeoil-installer-1.2.0-x86_64.sh
Remember to change the installer name accordingly. You should see something like the following:
Reboot The Computer
