Acer chromebook R13 build fails

Open moopyglue opened this issue 7 years ago • 7 comments

Hit problems with Acer chromebook R13 install (uname -m = aarch64) It stops after attempting the execution of apt.sh which fails because the attempted action woudl actually remove the 'apt' package itself. have attached a log of the install... log.txt

Happy to help debug if you do not have access to an R13

I'm looking into some aarch64 issues currently- but as Electron doesn't currently build for aarch64 (as libchromiumcontent binaries aren't built for aarch64 yet), I may have to start running seperate builds for libchromiumcontent and Electron (I'm working on this currently - hard to say if/when it'll be ready though).

Will update this issue as soon as I have more info.

I managed to install vscode on my R13 without any problems. The trick was, to simply add "-a armhf" to the crouton line in the chromebook.sh script. That installs an entirely 32-bit userland. The script downloads another script which breaks because it still detects a 64bit system, but you can do a manual "apt-get install vscode-oss"

That's a workaround until the 64bit issue is fixed, but at least i can start it now.

I wish this had occurred to me sooner!

Thanks for adding the tip, I'll get the scripts updated so folks on 64-bit chromebooks can get using this now ahead of true armv8.

Native ARM64 builds are up and running, will need to check scripts this weekend to confirm they're ok

I'm trying to build with Crostini on my Acer R13 and I'm hitting the issue in the attached log.

I originally tried installing the deb builds but I couldn't get any of them to install.

For me the debs install. I just stumble over the error when downloading the gpg key but you can do that manually afterwards. This is also on Acer R13 in crostini. You need the arm64 build.

So I switched from the beta channel back to stable (which of course does a power wash) and I was able to install the deb file directly. Thanks magic-k!
