I just came into possession via hand-me down of an older Samsung ARM Chromebook . . . fine for what it is, but could anyone here offer on guidance on the "cost/benefit" ratio of the crouton + DE route or the "nuke pave" of Chrome OS and fresh install of a linux OS???
The HD must be around 10GB . . . and I eventually may do the SSD upgrade, which might mean starting fresh . . . or possibly the SD card expansion . . . I don't know how the system "reads" or works with the SD card variation . . . like, in theory an entire os could be installed there and it would be a dual-boot condition?? Using some key to select between them?? Certainly I've done plenty of fresh installs of linux; question is whether the better path is the path of least resistance, keep the Chrome OS base, and do the crouton/developer mode method??? I did some brief online search and found the crouton instructions . . . but also found the "how to do it w/o crouton" . . . . So, any thoughts on best practice between the options would be where the local expertise would be helpful . . . . I'm not sure if I have a non-PPC version of Lu installed to usb drive . . . for testing purposes, etc . . . I'll have to rifle around to see what I have . . . . F
