User:Oxore/Draft:Acer Aspire 1 A114-32-C0JL

The Acer Aspire 1 model A114-32-C0JL, manufacturer's code NX.GVZER.004, is a cheap and lightwight 14" laptop, based on dual core Celeron N4000 processor with 4GB RAM and 64GB eMMC storage. It has no active cooling system, no discrete graphics card, but has Ethernet port and 14" FullHD TN screen. Comes with pre-installed Windows 10 OS.

Installation
Read [//michaelb.org/installing-ubuntu-17-10-linux-on-acer-aspire-1/ this] to find out how to prepare BIOS for OS installation.

Then the installation is per the Gentoo AMD64 handbook.

Kernel configuration
Most of following kernel options specified as modules, but most of them (not all though) can be selected to be compiled into kernel unconditionally (use  instead of  ).

eMMC storage contoller
After that  (sometimes  ) device must be available.

Bluetooth
It probably needs  besides options from the previous Wireless LAN section. And it probably needs some special out-of-tree firmware.

Author is still about to try this out.
