To enable this, first enable Developer Mode, then boot the system and start crosh. In some case, you are prompted for a password at sudo time, this is a known bug, in this case, you simply need to reset your Chromebook system ( Powerwash in ChromiumOS/ChromeOS terminology) again. * Note: You should be able to do this as guest, without the need to have or create a Google Account. In both case, the shell will be needed for installing the kernel on the SDcard so you probably want to read this. There are two methods, for this, using a text console shell (standard Linux shell), or using graphical user interface. Switching to recovery mode will delete any content or data stored on your system.Įnabling Developer Mode proceeds and may take over 10 minutes to complete.Īll of the installation techniques described require that the Chromebook be able to boot from either a USB device or an SD card. The system will boot and ask you to confirm that you wish to make the change. The system will reboot and show the Recovery Mode screen. Simply, developer mode can be enabled by first entering Recovery Mode (hold the ESC and Refresh keys then press the Power key). There are disadvantages to making this switch - see the link for more details, but it is currently a hard requirement. U-boot maybe supports C201 since January 2019.Īll of the installation techniques described require that the Chromebook be switched into Developer Mode.
#ARCH LINUX CHROMEBIT INSTALL#
In case you want to install the stretch version in jessie the only dependency is libssl1.0.2 which you'd have to install from stretch too. The vboot_kernel binary present in the factory ?ChromeOs also seems to work. This means the vboot-kernel-utils package in jessie (0~20121212-3) does not work, but the one in stretch (0~R52-8350.B-2) does. Consider that libreboot r20160907-20-gb204a20 seems to require kernels signed with version 2.2, and fail to boot with 2.0. Optionally, you may consider to replace coreboot with the Free libreboot. The laptop ships with coreboot as the bootloader.
There are several methods of installating other operating systems on Chromebooks.Ĭrouton can install Debian as a chroot under Chrome OS (but that is not described here).ĭebian can be installed on a USB stick/microSD card, or installed on the internal memory ( mmcblk0).
#ARCH LINUX CHROMEBIT DRIVER#
= Configuration Required = Only works with a non-free driver and or firmware = OK Unsupported(No Driver) = Error (Couldn't get it working) Unknown, Not Test Not-applicable Any devices not listed below are certainly too new to be supported.(can compile kernel from Chromium source) The Hardware ID is listed at the bottom of the Recovery Mode and Developer Mode boot screens.
IMPORTANT: Device support is solely determined by the board name/Hardware ID - manufacturer, model, etc are all irrelevant.
#ARCH LINUX CHROMEBIT UPDATE#
If a firmware update is required (or recommended) for your model, you can find full details at Firmware. The table below includes OS and firmware support information for all 237 models of Chromebooks, Chromeboxes, and Chromebases. To run GalliumOS, your ChromeOS device needs firmware support for Legacy/BIOS or UEFI booting.
