elementary OS

Optimise for chromebooks

Asked by Khaled Fayez

I know this os is meant for generic desktops and laptops but the 199$ ARM samsung chromebook is selling like crazy on amazon, so I thought it would be awesome to push this laptop the ideal elementary os laptop of choice since everyone laughs at chrome os. Is it possible to fix drivers and stuff for ARM ?

It's possible for somebody with the device to create an elementary OS flavored tailored for it. Nobody on the core development team seems to have one though.

I'm currently working on it as we speak. I'm trying to make it compatible with all Chromebook devices (Intel and ARM based). I own the CR-48 which is Intel based. If I get it working on there the theoretically it should work on ARM. I'll come back if I get it working

Can you help with this problem?
