Chrome OS Installation FAQ
**Chrome OS Installation FAQ**
1) Is this the same as Neverware Cloudready, Flint OS or Fyde OS ? No its not, Its full fledged Official Chrome OS including Android Apps, Linux, Google Assistant, Chrome Sync which is not available usually in this releases.
2) I'm stuck on google logo. Your recovery image file may be corrupted. So re download it and follow the procedure again.
3) My hard drive has name different than sda. You can edit the install.sh script and replace "sda" to your hdd name. or enter the following commands line by line in terminal and replace your hdd name with "sdX"
sudo apt update sudo apt install pv sodu apt install cgpt sudo chromeos-install.sh -src rammus_recovery.bin -dst /dev/sdX
4) I am not able to boot up. Please check your bios settings and disable secure boot, CSM, Legecy mode & turn on UEFI Boot option
5) I want to dual boot Chrome OS with Windows 10. Please let me know in the comments down below so I can make a separate video for dual booting chrome os with windows 10.
6) Linux apps (crostini) are not working at all, how do i fix it? Go check if you have enabled all virtualization related option in your BIOS (Ex: "Intel Virtualization", "VT-x", "VT-e" etc...) (you should)
Still if you have problem ,watch the video or comment on the video
