It says it has coreboot pre installed. I assume therefore its not difficult to flash Heads, which is based on coreboot?

Honestly, I don't know if that's the case; I always got scared whenever I saw the prerequisites for Heads in combination with the strict list of supported hardware. FWIW, the NV41 that's used for enabling Heads on NovaCustom's device is included in the short list of supported hardware for Heads, while -unfortunately- the same doesn't apply to the StarBook. I would love to be proven wrong though!

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
