Please forgive me if I'm incorrect about this,  I'm a N00b with arm
devices.   It looks like the tf101 does support device tree.   Here's a
link to cyanogenmod device tree code for it

https://github.com/RaymanFX/device_asus_tf101

There are reports of getting ubuntu running on a tf101
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Devices/tf101
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2168473

I'm willing to do legwork, can I virtualize a specific arm device?  I've
done stints as build manager at my place of employment and have setup and
maintain a koji build farm and bodhi instance at my place of employment.
I just need to bootstrap my brain into the arm world view

It seems to me that device tree is arms answer to a bios/post. As in here's
a list of devices/chipsets I know about on this device.
