Chromium Images

Hi all. I am trying to track down a Chromium image, but the only ones I can find are the Vanilla ones done by Hexxeh. But the issue with these is either the accessibility isn't working, or it won't use my WiFi card. Are there any official images? I've looked at the build instructions, but they assume they have an image already, which isn't helping. Google searching turned up a bunch of stuff on how to burn the images, but, sadly, not how to find them. Any help would be appreciated.

Have you tried building your own image? Google has a quick start guide online, and it has links for the source repo, see here: http://www.chromium.org/chromium-os/quick-start-guide (also see http://www.chromium.org/chromium-os/developer-guide) If previous compiled images are not working for you, you are way better off just compiling and modifying as needed.

As far as your issues, what exactly doesn't work? Could you provide us with the hardware you are trying to use this on?

I was having troubles with the accessibility bit, where you can press ctrl+alt+z at the beginning and the system will talk. I can get one image to talk, but the commonality with the few I've tried is the fact that the wileless isn't working. I have all intel hardware. I've been looking at the Developer's Guide, and I'm not entirely certain what to do, as the manual is rather cryptic. I run a Debian Wheezy box, and I can't figure out how to do the tty_tickets thing.
