Hiya axllbeing,

Unfortunately there are so many varieties of linux (and android) available, 
that we can't store all the possible profiles for each one.  At the moment, 
because it's still in development, we don't even provide the large distribution 
versions.

As such, you'll need to construct a new profile yourself.  Unfortunately clear 
instructions on how to construct that aren't available yet because the feature 
is still in development.  Atcuno may be able to give you a clearer description 
of how to build profiles, essentially you'll need to put a dwarfdump file and 
the system.map file into a zip file, which volatility will then treat as a 
profile.

Hopefully we'll be getting some up-to-date instructions in place after the next 
version of volatility has been released, which should be very soon...
