Has anyone tried this recently? I'm unable (even using the 10-1-2013 version) to boot the x64 installer. i686 works just fine but regardless of the newest 3-1-14 or the october I'm umable to boot into an install enviorment.
thanks!

Yup.
I'd like to report this issue since the problem is still in the 2014.01 image. Where can I report it?
You should probably report this to syslinux developers.
]]>I've been mounting my sd card to /home and its been working well, with the exception of fsck checks when I don't shutdown properly. My system crashed while trying to run 4 VM's, ssh, terminal and chrome, causing the SD card's superblock to corrupt. I had to format it, this time I chose ext4, not ext2 and made the partition table GPT, not DOS.

The problem I'm having now is that I can't seem to right click with the trackpad in xfce and the chrome F buttons don't retain the functions they are labeled for. Anyone have solution to these problems?

I'm having trouble booting from the Arch Linux live image on a new Chromebook Pixel with the legacy BIOS. It boots fine from the i686 boot option, but it quickly reboots under x86_64. The last thing that I see on the screen in the latter case is the 'Probing EDD (edd=off to disable)'... then the screen flickers and I'm back at 'OS verification is OFF'. This is both with and without 'mem=4G' option.
Thanks for your help.
EDIT: Perhaps this is the same syslinux problem mentioned above. I'll try it with an older live image...
EDIT2: That did it. I needed to go back to October, though.

Also, the touchscreen needs calibration, as there is a dead zone that throws low touches off.
I generated this with xinput-calibrator.
sudo xinput set-prop 13 458 0 2560 0 1650
13 is the xinput id, 458 is the xinput propid Evdev Calibration, the rest is the actual calibration values.
To make permanent place the following in
/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/99-calibration.conf
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "calibration"
MatchProduct "Atmel maXTouch Touchscreen"
Option "Calibration" "0 2560 0 1650"
EndSection
Can you guys confirm if you are experiencing this particular screen issue on the Pixel?
Yes, I do: the last post is mine. When you turn off the screen for a while it's all fine, but I think it's pretty annoying, especially on a such expensive device (I'll be annoyed on a cheap too anyway).
