At the login, type chronos and hit enter (no password is needed).Press Ctrl+alt+ → (not the right cursor key, but the key where the standard F2 key would be) Once you reach the Google login screen, do NOT log in When the system finally boots to the set up, select a wireless connection and click continueĪccept the EULA by clicking Accept and continue The system will reboot (this will take some time) When the device reaches the recover screen, press Ctrl+d and then (after releasing Ctrl+d) press Enter Hold Escape and Refresh and tap the Power button When all is said and done, you’ll have a recovery drive to use to get your system back where it was (should you not like either Linux install or something goes wrong). Chromebook offers a simple solution for this. First things firstīefore you install Linux, I highly recommend creating a recovery USB flash drive. The Bodhi installation will give you more space for your Linux needs, at the cost of ChromeOS. With the dual boot, you retain the simplicity of ChromeOS, with the addition of the power and flexibility of Ubuntu. In the end, you’ll wind up with either a dual booting Chromebook (in the case of ChrUbuntu) or a single boot system (with Bodhi). There are a few tricks to get this working. But the process isn’t exactly as simple as slapping a USB flash drive in, booting, and installing. For those who need more from this Acer platform, I have the answer – in fact, I have two answers:īoth solutions will land you with a full-blown Linux set up, ready to do what you need to do. But for some, the simplistic nature of the devices doesn’t offer enough power or flexibility. The Acer C720 Chromebook is certainly near the top of the list of Chromebooks to be purchased (next to the Chromebook Pixel, of course). They are a marvel of speed and simplicity.
