I want to tun the slackwarearm installer which is nothing but an

can't extract it properly because cpio is not available on the
Chromebook.

so build/copy it over.  the cros-sdk makes it really easy to cross-compile packages.

or unpack it first on a different system and repack it with something that's already included (such as tar).

i'll give you a one off :p

If you ask me why I don't run Slackware in a chroot, yes I can in text
mode but I cannot start Xorg in chroot as another Xorg server is
already running on the Chromebook and that one cannot be shut down.

yes it can ... log in to a VT and run `stop ui`.  or launch X on a different display.  you can run an infinite number of X servers on a single system.  the default one is simply :0.
