The Developer Guide says you need:

Ubuntu Linux (version 10.04 - Lucid)

Most developers working on Chromium OS are using Lucid (the LTS version of Ubuntu) and will not be updating to 10.10. It is possible that things will work if you're running a different Linux distribution, but you will probably find life easier if you're on Lucid. Please note that Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic) is known not to work

to install. The Quick Start Guide says you need:

Ubuntu Linux (version == 12.04 - Precise)

This is the only officially support distro, but building ChromiumOS should work fine on any x86_64 Linux distro running a 2.6.9+ kernel

Maybe these should get synced?
