Running FreeBSD 10.2-RELEASE on the Acer C720 Chromebook
This describes how to apply the patches backported from CURRENT on FreeBSD 10.2-RELEASE.
Apply patches and build memstick image
Use the following commands to create memstick.img:
chflags -R noschg /usr/src rm -rf /usr/src svnlite co https://svn.freebsd.org/base/releng/10.2 /usr/src cd /usr/src fetch -o - https://blog.grem.de/releng102c720.patch | patch -p0 make buildworld make buildkernel cd /usr/src/release make -DNOPKG -DNOPORTS memstick
Use dd to write the resulting disk image /usr/src/release/memstick.img to a USB memory stick.
Using this installation medium, follow the instructions for FreeBSD-CURRENT to install and configure the OS.
