I think it’s actually chrubuntu, but you get the general idea. I also copied the script to it.thelibrarie.com\/utilities\/chrubuntu-install.txt just in case the s9ryd link goes dark. So here is how to remove the google chromeOS and install a fork\/flavor of ubuntu. Why install? Citrix receiver was version 1.x and runs as a Chrome browser wraparound; none of the full screen buttons work, sound didn’t work, video was choppy. The receiver for Windows\/Mac\/Linux is 2.x and has HDX and other supported features. And the laptop seems peppy-er now anyway. Battery life went from 4.5 hours to just under 4, so keep that in mind as well.

Documentation is a work in progress.<\/p>\n

\nHP’s chromebook is a giant pain in the *** to enable developer mode. You end up removing all 10 screws on the bottom, carefully removing the keyboard with fingernails and a flat head screwdriver, and then removing 9 more screws from under the keyboard. Pry up the top right corner (we want to end up with the right half accessible) so you can find the toggle switch. More information here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
