I just found the one I have and it has an ARM processor. :(

I was thinking about getting an ARM chromebook to do this, cuz the Pinebook seemed like a good idea, but seemed underpowered. There are some nice ones like the Acer Chromebook 14 with the Kompanio ARM chip, but unfortunately no one is making custom firmware for ARM based chromebooks right now. Hopefully someone will at some point. Would be nice to have a power efficient passively cooled laptop. I think some of AMD laptops with their U series chips are pretty efficient.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
