What is Anchorboot

A project working on getting UEFI firmware on ARM chromebooks

How does it work

It uses something called chainloading which loads processes to boot Anchorboot in a chain.

When Anchorboot is fully developed and is booting on an ARM chromebook the chain would mostly be like the one below

Chromebook Firmware > CTRL + U press > UEFI firmware loads

Future of Armor

Through my research I have found out the Chrome OS developer bootloader (that opens when you press CTRL + U with Dev USB boot and Unsigned Boot enabled) is called U-Boot which you can chainload your own version to automatically detect and boot an USB (you have to make your own version that supports automatically detecting and booting off an USB) Which isn't the best but we could take that more then what we have right now, so the very first Chromebook to test out chainloading a custom version of U-Boot will be the Acer Chromebook 13 CB5-311 (that will be refered to Nyan-Big since that is the codename)

Once I get my hands on it I will test it out and try to chainload an version of U-Boot that can boot off USBs stay tuned!
