Bodhi ARMHF Alpha for Samsung Chromebook As I mentioned in a post last weekend, Ive got my hands on the new Samsung Chromebook. The hardware in this device is simply awesome (full formal review forthcoming), but ChromeOS left me wanting a real operating system with non-cloud applications. Thankfully Ive been working on Bodhis ARM branch for awhile now and it proved fairly simple to get at least a base system up and rolling on the Chromebook (largely due to the fact that ChromeOS is Linux based). Now, unfortunately the current install process for getting an alternative operating system to boot on the Chromebook isnt as easy as our Genesi images - but if you follow the instructions I provide below to the letter you should have Bodhi booting on your Chromebook in no time! Please note following these steps WILL permanently delete all local data and configurations of your ChromeOS! It essentially restores the system to factory defaults. Step 1 - Boot in Recovery Mode Make sure your...

Bodhi Linux ARMHF RootFS If youve been following my blog (or my updates on Google+) then odds are you know I currently have my hands on two ARM devices (plus a third in the mail) I am working on creating Bodhi Linux images for. With this in mind Ive decided I am going to start maintaining a generic ARMHF root file system to make creating Bodhi Linux images for new ARM devices easier for myself and others. You will always be able to find the latest copy of this file system on Bodhi source forge page here. The default user name is armhf  and the default password is bodhilinux . The default user has sudo access by default. Essentially on any device we have a functioning Linux kernel for - it should simply be as easy as extracting that file system to a bootable location. Copying over /lib/firmware and /lib/modules and then telling your ARM system to boot from this new file system. As an aside - this is the first blog post I am writing from the Samsung ARM Chromebook with the Bodhi des...

Bodhi ARMHF Alpha for Nexus 7 Earlier this month we collected enough donations that I was able to pick up a Nexus 7 to do some development work on for Bodhi. Today I would like to share our first public images for the Nexus 7. They install, they boot up, and they are semi functional. By that I mean the touchscreen and wireless work OOTB and the interface runs smoothly on the device. I havent had time to try and make audio work fully yet - but I have gotten some noise to come out of the speakers. With the help of my lovely fiance I filmed the following short demo video of Bodhi running on the device: Anywho - installing Bodhi on the Nexus 7 follows the same process as installing Ubuntu on the device. I dont have an automated installer finished just yet so you will need to install the Bodhi images using a manual install process. This can be done using the following steps: Step 0 - Getting the Tools Installing Bodhi on the Nexus 7 can be done from any Linux distribution so long as you hav...

Bodhis ARM Branch Moves to ARMHF After doing some research and testing for the last week I have arrived at the conclusion that Bodhis ARM branch will best serve our users by moving our core from Debian Wheezy ARMEL to utilize Debian Wheezy ARMHF. Im not going to get into the technical difference between the two platforms here - just know that in general ARMHF is faster. With this change however, there are some slight changes to our ARM repo details. If you have Debian Wheezy ARMHF installed on a device and wish to add the Bodhi repo to your sources the line you want to add is: deb http://packages.bodhilinux.com/bodhi/ debian stable Then you just install our bodhi-desktop  package as before. With regards to our officially supported ARM devices, you can find download links to our brand new ARMHF images for the RaspBerry Pi and Genesi Smartbook on our ARM downloads page. Our RaspBerry Pi build is built directly on top of Raspbian and incorporates all of their changes and improvements....
