- | In the past, I have reviewed cloud-based distros. The Chromebook is very difficult to wipe from the SSD. There are various means to incorporate Ubuntu into the framework. The first attempt was Chrubuntu, Crouton, and the Gallium OS. I purchased an Acer C720 to experiment with Crouton and Gallium. This hardware is known for compatibility with Crouton and Gallium. When I logged into the Acer, the screen top was a perfect duplicate of my Toshiba. Even my Chromebook settings live in the cloud, which is slightly unnerving. | + | **In the past, I have reviewed cloud-based distros. The Chromebook is very difficult to wipe from the SSD.

Chrubuntu runs off a dedicated USB or SD card. It acts like a regular full operating OS. The developer installed all of the hardware drivers and items for Chrubuntu. It is supposedly easier to install. It appears to be an abandoned project. You can find instructions on how to install it on the web. The Chrubuntu community is thriving. Previously, I installed Chrubuntu on an Acer C710, and I was not impressed. The trackpad was inactive and the system seemed slow since it was running from an SD card. Perhaps at that time Chrubuntu was in beta testing or my hardware was not complementary. Chrubuntu works as a true dual boot for the Chromebook. | Chrubuntu runs off a dedicated USB or SD card.

- | Crouton uses a root environment. This allows Ubuntu to run parallel with the Chrome OS. There would be no need to reboot to move between the two operating systems. It was easier to get Crouton installed. There are only three available DEs: Unity, XFCE, and KDE. I attempted LXDE and failed. My version had Ubuntu 12.04, there are ways to install 14.04 for the root environment. I followed the directions at www.linux.com by Swapnil Bhartiya on installing Crouton. David Bennett at www.davebennett.tech offers simple steps for the 14.04 installation. He also gives instructions on how to install Kodi to your Chromebook. | + | Crouton uses a root environment.

A final option on a Chromebook is to change the BIOS to SeaBios. Only certain Chromebook models can utilize SeaBios. This modified BIOS enables a person to wipe the Chrome OS off the Chromebook and boot a Live USB to install another OS. In some cases some people are installing a Windows OS despite the lack of mouse and keyboard drivers. You can discover this method from a single internet query. | A final option on a Chromebook is to change the BIOS to SeaBios. Only certain Chromebook models can utilize SeaBios.

The past couple months I reviewed the various cloud-based distros and Linux environments for the Chromebooks. In my humble opinion, there is an open source solution to the closed Chrome OS developed by Google. The solution is not the easiest to implement though. If a person wants to avoid the Chrome OS, he or she should purchase a cheap laptop, then install Peppermint OS or Apricity OS. However a person can learn numerous items when installing an open source solution. Every cloud-based distro offers perks and problems during the course of OS discovery. | The past couple months I reviewed the various cloud-based distros and Linux environments for the Chromebooks.

+ | Au cours des derniers mois, j'ai fait la critique de diverses distributions basées dans le nuage et de différents environnements Linux pour les Chromebooks. À mon humble avis, il y a un remplaçant Open Source du Chrome OS fermé, développé par Google. Toutefois, cette solution n'est pas des plus faciles à implémenter. Si un individu veut éviter l'OS Chrome, il ou elle devrait acheter un ordinateur portable peu cher, puis installer Peppermint OS ou Apricity OS, mais il/elle peut apprendre beaucoup de choses en installant une solution Open Source. Chaque distribution basée dans le nuage présente des avantages et des inconvénients pendant que vous vous familiarisez avec elle. | ||
