How to Install Linux on a Chromebook
In this video I show how I was able to install Ubuntu Linux on a Samsung Chromebook. This will allow you to run Ubuntu Linux on your Chromebook and keep a version of ChromeOS.
Video and Command Lines
These are the command lines I used in the video:
sudo sh -e ~/Downloads/crouton -r list (lists the linux builds)
sudo sh -e ~/Downloads/crouton -t help (lists the linux desktop interfaces)
sudo sh -e ~/Downloads/crouton -r trusty -t lxde (installs the build and desktop interfaces)
sudo startlxde URL for Crouton: http://goo.gl/fd3zc
Here are some instructions I used:
