Are we talking about this device:

https://www.google.de/intl/de/chrome/devices/acer-c720-chromebook.html#ac-c720

This has only a 16 GByte SSD and the rest is in the cloud under the
control of whoever.

Yeah, we need:

* usb fixed up
* bootloader (loader) needs more ram, as it runs out of memory trying
to read in the kernel - seabios unfortunately lies about how much is
actually there
* graphics - haswell, right?
* atkbd patches
* mouse / i2c bus driver ported over

The wifi, works great.
