@Timo, ahh! Hence the fascination with unetbootin. Makes sense now.

Title:
Installer doesn't show up on some Chromebook
To manage
Ubuntu seem to have a problem when the SeaBIOS payload doesn't re-run
the video BIOS. Some SeaBIOS payload, like the John Lewis one, reuses
the existing framebuffer vs re-initializing using the VGA BIOS.

There is no 3:2 resolution on normal chromebooks, just normal
resolutions. It's more due to the video BIOS missing / being strange
when using the SeaBIOS payload beneath chromebook's Coreboot from what I
can understand, and gfxboot not coping with it.
I believe 16.04 would work just as well if
Timo, this only affects newer releases. 14.04 works with the workaround
mentioned. The issue is indeed the resolution and 3:2 scaling I'd guess.
There's no graceful fallback either and you have to workaround it or
patch even after installed.

Fedora 23 boots fine, as does Ubuntu when created with unetbootin (which
is otherwise somewhat unrecommendable tool for Ubuntu USB).
I'm available with my Braswell based Chromebook if anyone wants to debug
this.
I needed to use Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS created from 14.04 installation since
unetbootin
Maybe that can help, recently I flashed the full ROM from John Lewis and
the problem is not present too for my Falco.

Title:
Installer doesn't
I have this problem on a Acer CB5-571-C4G4.
Unlike on the HP Chromebook as Waz mentioned in #5, MattDevo's SeaBIOS
isn't making a difference on this Acer.

Thank you Mathieu for looking at this problem.
I'm on irc with the Gallium OS guys and they say that they are using grub, not
syslinux.
You can talk to them directly here if you want :

Thanks to MattDevo I managed to fix the problem by installing his legacy
firmware :
https://github.com/MattDevo/scripts
He said that there is maybe a bug in Ubuntu because the previous
firmware I used from John Lewis doesn't re-run the video BIOS when
switching to SeaBIOS. He'd guess it has to
Reassigning to gfxboot-theme-ubuntu, where the problem might be (either
that or it's something in syslinux).
It would help if someone from Gallium could point out what they did to
work around this in gfxboot, if anything, or if they're using some newer
syslinux, for instance.
** Package changed:
On previous Ubuntu versions there was a workaround. You had to type "help"
(after boot:) then hit "enter".
That doesn't work anymore.
Gallium OS which is based on Xubuntu 15.04 works and don't need a workaround.
Maybe it's a good place to start.
It will be great if it can be fixed for Ubuntu
I have this problem on my HP Chromebook 14 (FALCO).
I use Gallium OS (based on Xubuntu) for now.
** Summary changed:
- Installer doesn't show up on Chromebook Pixel 2
+ Installer doesn't show up on some Chromebook
