Manually upgrading the kernel to 4.2 to support AppArmor is required before snap install will work.
The instructions for upgrading the kernel are found on Odroid's wiki.
This custom kernel configuration adds support for various Cloudshell necessities.
Make sure that in your boot.ini you reference the new dtb file instead of the old one:
fatload mmc 0:1 0x44000000 exynos5422-odroidxu4.dtb
You will also need to enable AppArmor in the boot line on boot.ini, example:
setenv bootrootfs "console=tty1 console=ttySAC2,115200n8 apparmor=1 security=apparmor root=UUID=1b7c64c5-e2c1-4e51-a010-ed4a62ce75dd rootwait ro fsck.repair=yes net.ifnames=0"
If your Cloudshell LCD doesn't turn on, change the module definition on /etc/modprobe.d/odroid-cloudshell.conf to:
options fbtft_device name=hktft9340 busnum=1 rotate=270 gpios=reset:21,dc:22,led:18
Hardkernel is scheduled to officially update the kernel to 4.9 in February of 2017 so these changes should no longer be necessary by then.
Assuming you have Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and above kernel working.
Download the latest work-in-progress ARMHF Rocket.Chat snap from the ubuntu launchpad site:
scp the snap onto your XU4 server.
Then use standard snap command to install Rocket.Chat:
sudo snap install ./rocketchat-server_0.48.2_armhf.snap --dangerous
Wait about a minute, and then check port 3000 for your working Rocket.Chat server!
