I'm working on it... Chromium takes a ton of memory at the linking stage 2.3Gb+, most armhf boards only have 2GB... Just recently picked up an omap5 with 4gb, but u-boot's only seeing 1gb as of last friday, so gotta fix that first.. Previouly i had tried using an A80 based board, but it's kernel wasn't lpae enabled (yet) and ran out of memory at 2.3GB used. For that hardware a mainline u-boot is still a few months away. So yeah, till then use either "firefox/iceweasel" or "qupzilla" which i built off qt5, so it's kinda neat..
