Chrome OS RMA Shim Bootloader

This is a set of scripts for patching a Chrome OS RMA shim to serve as a bootloader for a standard Linux disto.

Current Development Roadmap:

  • build the image automatically
  • boot to a shell
  • switch_root into an actual rootfs
  • start X11 in the actual rootfs
  • ui improvements in the bootloader
  • load all needed drivers
  • autostart X11

Usage:

  1. Grab a Chrome OS RMA Shim from somewhere. Most of them have already been leaked and aren't too difficult to find.
  2. Download a Devuan live ISO. Run it inside a VM and install it to a disk image. Mount the disk image in the host.
  3. Run sudo DEBUG=1 ./build.sh. The rootfs_dir argument should point to where you mounted the rootfs in part 2.
  4. Flash the generated image to a USB drive or SD card.
