March 5Mar 5 Hello, I have a Medion Chromebook S2015 with a CPU (armv7 processor rev 1 (v7l)) and RAM (2062808 kB). So it's 32-bit. I want to install Linux on it. To do this, I need an armhf architecture. However, under armhf on ARMBIAN, I find (Inovato Quadra, Khadas Edge 2, Khadas VIM4, Mekotronics R58 4X4, Mekotronics R58 HD, Muse Pi Pro, NanoPC T6 LTS, NanoPi M5, Nanopi M6, Nanopi R3S / LTS, NanoPi R76S, Radxa Rock 5B Plus, Radxa Rock 5C and Radxa Rock 5T). What should I select? Are there still 32-bit versions available?

March 5Mar 5 Maybe see https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Medion_Chromebook_S2015_(google-veyron-mighty) It is RK3288, so an Armbian Rockchip kernel might do something, but I have no clue about DeviceTree and/or bootloader. Alpine is quite different from Armbian/Debian but maybe with that bootloader+kernel+DTB and Armbian rootfs it might do something, but make sure you have seril debug cable. In general might need to find solder points on motherboard/PCB or some specific resistor value on OTG ID pin.
March 10Mar 10 Author Solution Thanks for the replies. But I've decided on Linux Mainline on ARM Chromebooks (Veyron): https://github.com/velvet-os/imagebuilder/releases/tag/251115-02 which at least works from the SD card. I'm still working on the installation. 😉
