Hello.

A lot of years ago,I bought the cool notebook "Samsung=20 Chromebook "SNOW" model XE303C12" where it seems that only C= hromeOS and=20 Linux can be installed. The specs are the following ones :

  • CPU: Samsung = Exynos 5 Dual (5250) (Cortex A15; 1.7GHz dual core cpu)
  • GPU: ARM Mali-T604 (Quad Core)
    • 1366x768 sc= reen & HDMI external connector
  • RAM: 2 GiB DDR3
      The memory is not upgradable as it is soldered directly to the board<= /ul>
    • Disk: 16 GiB SSD (connected to eMMC)
      • SD & USB expan= sion slots
    • WiFi: 802.11 a/b/g/n
      • USB slot can handl= e Ethernet dongle

I'm trying to look on Internet to understand if I ca= n install FreeBSD without having all the troubles explained here :


Which option= s do I have to have a fully working FreeBSD system on that=20 machine ? If it can't be installed natively,maybe these two options are= =20 feasible ? :

1) to virtualize FreeBSD using qemu and kvm
2) to install FreeBSD using the crouton chroot method ?

What else ? What do you think ? Maybe you know some specific tutorial=20 that's more updated and that can allow me to install freeBSD on that=20 machine making almost everything work as expected.
