![]() So after you do your homework and find one that linux is pretty easy to install with hardware supported, then make your choice. Since internal drive limited to 15GB, preferred Knoppix or Easy/Puppy, seriously Knoppix gives huge amount software all compressed to size of one dvd, all preinstalled and compressed. But ended up of the ones I had copies of already downloaded (limited data) MX21 and Debian11 were only ones that supported sound out of box. But EasyOS, Knoppix, MX, couple dogs, cant remember all I tried. There is a kernel you can add to FossaPup to support it. The trouble was sound driver, its rare one. Now once I had the MrChromebox UEFI bios installed, then frankly could boot nearly any 64bit system capable of booting via UEFI. This chromebook cheap cause the chromeos had expired, no more updates for you and it had the small 15GB eMMC drive. Made it mostly into following the recipe. I recently got a Dell some guy on ebay offered me for $12 shipped (+$1 tax), found a blog with exactly same chromebook WITH PICS. Its really, really smart to investigate the chromebook you are considering very closely. Puppy Linux and normal Linux OS's, will not work on ARM architecture computers. Make sure it is a X86-64 or AMD64 processor. Really depends on the Chromebook, as to what you need to do.ĭo make sure the Chromebook you want to buy is not using an ARM processor.
