Acer C720P Chromebook: alternatives OS

Chromebooks werden mit ChromeOS ausgeliefert. Dieses basiert auf Linux, ist aber sehr stark eingeschränkt und erlaubt es z.B. nicht, native Anwendungen zu installieren. Deshalb ist es sinnvoll, eine andere Linux-Distribution zu installieren (z.B. Debian).

„First things first

Before you install Linux, I highly recommend creating a recovery USB flash drive. Chromebook offers a simple solution for this. Just follow these steps:

  1. Boot up your Chromebook and login
  2. Plug in a spare ~2GB+ USB flash drive
  3. Open the Chrome browser
  4. Go to chrome://imageburner
  5. Follow the simple instructions.

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).“
