 - If you have a Rasberry Pi, the easiest way to use the gateway is to [download and flash](http://webthings.io/gateway/) a pre-built software image to an SD card.
 - If you prefer to use Docker, we have a prebuilt Docker image available [here](https://hub.docker.com/r/webthingsio/gateway), for both ARM and amd64. You can also build your own image from this repository.
-- On Fedora, Debian, Raspberry Pi OS, or Ubuntu, you can install the relevant .rpm or .deb package from the [releases page](https://github.com/WebThingsIO/gateway/releases).
-- On Arch Linux, you can install the [webthings-gateway AUR package](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/webthings-gateway/). The PKGBUILD for this package can also be seen [here](https://github.com/WebThingsIO/gateway-aur).
-- Otherwise, you can build it from source yourself (see below).
+- On Ubuntu or Ubuntu Core you can install the experimental [snap package](https://snapcraft.io/webthings-gateway) with `$ snap install webthings-gateway --edge`. (Requires the `system-observe` and `network-manager` interfaces to be connected in order to configure network settings).
+- Otherwise, you can build WebThings Gateway from source yourself (see below).
