Now, execute “install.sh” in Linux Mint and you will have no issues. After that, choose “Unix” and save the file.
Make sure to open “Edit” from the menu bar and then choose “EOL Conversion”. From there, you can edit the file easily.
In case, you are unable to edit the install.sh file on Linux Mint, go back to Windows and download Notepad++ ( Free).
Now, save the file and execute the install.sh file and it should install Chrome OS on your hard disk. Now, download the “tar.gz” file.įor example, if the hard disk name is mmcblk0 then /dev/sda in the last line should change to /dev/mmcblk0. To download the file, click here and look for the latest stable build and then click on “Assets”. The framework creates a generic Chrome OS image from the official recovery image so it can be installed on any Windows PC.

Here, I am recommending “rammus” because it works on modern Intel processors. Now, click on the latest recovery image to download it (right now it’s 87, but it may change in the future). Open the website and search for “rammus”. If this link is not working then you can download the image from here as well. After that, download the official Chrome OS recovery image from here.

Once you've used a wi-fi network on one device, when you sign into the same Google Account on another device, there's no need to enter wi-fi credentials again.2.
Google has also extended Wi-Fi Sync to work with more devices, so you can sync your Chromebook credentials not only with another Chromebook but Android devices as well, and visa versa. It works offline, and there's no need to share contact details. In the coming months, Google will be rolling out Nearby Share, to let users instantly and securely share files between your Chromebook and other Chrome OS or Android devices. Below that, the user can find quick actions to take, such as instant tethering, a "find your device" function and "do not disturb." Phone Hub lets you turn on notifications, so you can receive messages sent to your phone, as well as respond to them from your Chromebook. At the top of the application, users can see information related to the status of their phone, such as battery life and cellular connections.
The Phone Hub serves as a sort of "control center" for Android devices. Some of the latest features for Chrome OS are focused on facilitating that experience. "Unlike the past, our expectation is we should have access to our data and a consistent experience across these surfaces." One key part of that evolution, he said, is the use of multiple devices. "It's amazing to see how modern computing has evolved," he said. This past year, it became the second-most popular desktop operating system. One in 10 desktop devices sold globally run on Chrome OS, Maletis said, as do one in five sold in the US. In addition to serving the education sector, Google now targets general consumers and people using Chromebooks for work. They've since undergone a "huge shift" to become the primary device for users, Maletis told reporters on Tuesday. When Chromebooks were launched with Acer and Samsung in 2011, they were largely secondary devices for people, noted John Maletis, head of product and UX for Chrome OS. The new features come on the 10th anniversary of the Chromebook, which gained popularity initially in the education sector.
