Interessante Entwicklung. Ich hätte erwartet, dass sie nichts mehr an #ChromeOS machen. Ich werde mal die #Performance testen.

Linux Mint microblog update:

Why not put Mint on a cheap Chromebook?

It's really difficult to get a modern Chromebook to boot to install media that isn't ChromeOs.

Really really difficult.

But once booted to the Linux Mint install media, things are just moving along with the usual chill simplicity...so far.

I will update again once I am finish.
(Update: No luck so far. But I will turn this into a thread with updates until my Chromebook runs some version of Linux.)

Also, I clicked past so many warranty voiding warnings.

I genuinely wouldn't bother if:

1. Google's terms of service were short enough to read.
2. Google had stayed out of my news feed for privacy concerns for, let's say, the past five years.

But lacking both of those, I'm going to continue to wipe Google's OS off of any device I use.

If you have some kind of device running #Android with keyboard+mouse input, you too will likely enjoy the changes as you should be able to likewise disable all touch-specific code too! The Android version still has some compiled out code for desktop-y concepts like window handling so your mileage may vary however.

...I'm also not sure how commonplace it is to have an Android device with non-touchscreen input. If you're on Chrome OS our typical recommendation is to install Principia inside of the Crostini Linux container. Or do as I did, flash the bootloader with Coreboot and install regular Linux onto it!

Turning a Chromebook into a Chrultrabook

Chromebook is the name of Google’s brand of mostly low-end laptops running Chrome OS, an operating system whose primary functionality is running the Google Chrome browser. When I finished 9th grade and went onto Gymnasiet, I had the option to keep the Chromebook I was given for the past three years at school. Since I had been keeping good care of it for the past years I was using it, why not? I knew that once it gets unlocked I will have access to the containerised Crostini Linux environment, but I was not aware at the time of the ways one can fully install another operating system on it.
