Hello.

I would like to upgrade the kernel and I want to enable KVM on my old but
still functional "Samsung Chromebook ARM model XE303C12 SNOW" because later
I want to virtualize FreeBSD with qemu and kvm. I've started following this
tutorial :


*http://www.virtualopensystems.com/en/solutions/guides/kvm-on-chromebook/*
<http://www.virtualopensystems.com/en/solutions/guides/kvm-on-chromebook/>


As you can see,they used Ubuntu 13.04 as userland. No,I don't want to run
such an old ubuntu version ! Actually my problem is that only 2 times over
10 tries my chromebook is able to boot correctly with the same setup. I've
also completely erased the sd card with sudo dd if=/dev/zero
of=/dev/mmcblk1 status=progress bs=2M but very rarely it wants to boot. I
don't understand where the error is. When I insert the sd card into the
slot it beeps and it prepares itself to boot chrome OS from the internal
memory,not Linux from the sd card.

The problem could be systemd that always tries to check and fix disk errors
and it did not support natively chrome os disk partitions flags. So it may
break those flags after the first boot. So,I thought of using devuan as
userland. I don't know if it supports armel / armhf. I've found this site
where there are listed all the ARM images available for Devuan.

My chromebook is a 32 bit arm,so,can you suggest to me which image I could
try ? I see a lot of platforms there,but there isn't a specific one for me.
