Found this on a Web Wander http://chromeos.hexxeh.net/index.php it boots on a samsung nc10 of a usb stick , any takers for a little project :)
Would be cool just to have a fiddle around with it on the Joggler.

I also looked into this, seems that its not much different to jolios, and you can use all the chromeos apps in chrome on any joggler os that takes chrome lol

The good news for those who do want Chrome OS to play around with is that Hexxeh (the creator of Chrome OS Flow) uses the O2 Joggler to test touchscreen compatibility - http://www.thechromesource.com/video-o2 ... ng-chrome/.

ever wanted to help add support to Lime? Soon the code will be available for you to hack on :)
This could be fun!

EDIT:
Just got a tweet back saying it would be awesome to get GMA500 working - do Buzz's builds have 2D acceleration working at the moment?

linux on the joggler has 2d/3d and video decoding acceleration :) (and plenty of emgd bugs)

Looks like it! Where did you get that? I've completely forgotten about the ebuild, by the way :-S Does the ICS work make up for it slightly?
