Aug 07, 2019 Now that you know what may go wrong, here is how you can install Windows 10 on your Chromebook. How To Install Windows On Chromebook? To install Windows 10 on Chromebook, you need to follow these steps: 1. Remove the Write Protection screw if your system has one. Check the developer website to check if your system has one and how to remove it. I am writing this article on Windows 8 running on my Asus Chromebox, booting from a USB hard drive. Audio does not seem to work, otherwise it seems fine. I used WinToUsb to install Windows 8.1 to a Toshiba USB 3 portable. I followed the XBMC directions to install dual boot chrubuntu. The tinker in me wants to install Ubuntu 20.04, I like the new GUI, it's slick. However I get screen flickering when trying to install with LEGACYRW which I understand is known and there are no fixes. Realized I can use EFI BIOS and install CloudReady next to Ubuntu Dualboot. May 08, 2019 The Chromebox is an inexpensive small form-factor PC which runs Google's ChromeOS; it is the desktop variant of a Chromebook laptop. Although Kodi does not run natively under ChromeOS, the Chromebox can easily be made to run Linux (or Windows) and Kodi.

Developer Mode
Caution: Modifications you make to the system are not supported by Google, may cause hardware, software or security issues and may void warranty.
Introduction
Enabling Developer mode is the first step to tinkering with your Chromebox. With Developer mode enabled you can do things like poke around on a command shell (as root if you want), install Chromium OS, or try other OS's. Note that Developer mode turns off some security features like verified boot and disabling the shell access. If you want to browse in a safer, more secure way, leave Developer mode turned OFF. Note: Switching between Developer and Normal (non-developer) modes will remove user accounts and their associated information from your Chromebox.
Entering
To invoke Recovery mode, you insert a paper clip and press the RECOVERYBUTTON (just above the kensington lock) and press thePowerbutton. Release the RECOVERY BUTTON after a second.
To enter Dev-mode you first invoke Recovery, and at the Recovery screen press Ctrl-D (there's no prompt - you have to know to do it). It will ask you to confirm by pressing the RECOVERY BUTTON again.
Dev-mode works the same as always: It will show the scary boot screen and you need to press Ctrl-D or wait 30 seconds to continue booting.
USB Boot
By default, USB booting is disabled. Once you are in Dev-mode and have a root shell (Ctrl-Alt-F2), you can run:
and reboot once to boot from USB drives with Ctrl-U.
Legacy Boot
This device includes the SeaBIOS firmware which supports booting images directly like a legacy BIOS would. Note: the BIOS does not provide a fancy GUI for you, nor is it easy to use for beginners. You will need to manually boot/install your alternative system.
Like USB boot, support for this is disabled by default. You need to get into Dev-mode first and then run:
sudo crossystem dev_boot_legacy=1
and reboot once to boot legacy images with Ctrl-L.
Leaving
To leave Dev-mode and go back to normal mode, just follow the instructions at the scary boot screen. It will prompt you to confirm.
If you want to leave Dev-mode programmatically, you can run
crossystem disable_dev_request=1; reboot
from a root shell. There's no way to enter Dev-mode programmatically, and just seeing the Recovery screen isn't enough - you have to use the three-finger salute which hard-resets the machine first. That's to prevent a remote attacker from tricking your machine into dev-mode without your knowledge.Troubleshooting
Legacy Boot Doesn't Work
Sometimes it's possible to break the SeaBIOS install in the flash (sometimes doing innocuous things like tweaking the GBB flags). If you do get into such a situation:
- Check that dev_boot_legacy is set to 1 when you run crossystem
- If it isn't, then see the normal Legacy Boot section above
- if it is, then see below
You can safely reset the copy of SeaBIOS in your flash by running (as root):
Now called ArmaLite. They will not give out a list, but will look up on an individual basis. Lower receiver serial numbers DO NOT begin with EA. Essential Arms. All are Pre Ban AR 15 Rifles as they went out of business in 1993. (DPMS bought them prior to the Ban) Call DPMS Lower receiver serial numbers begin with EA. Some or all lowers are cast. Dpms lower receiver serial number. Post a pic of your serial number, with the K in it. You can delete part of it, but leave the K in there. All DPMS LR-308 stripped lower receivers had a K at the end of the serial number. You're talking Gen 2, as well, so who knows what they did with that platform.

# flashrom -w /tmp/bios.bin -i RW_LEGACY
Running Chromium OS
Before you start fiddling with your own builds it is strongly recommend to create a recovery USB stick or SD card. As long as you don't disable hardware write protect on the system & EC firmware, you can get your machine back into working order by entering Recovery Mode and plugging in your recovery image. You can create a recovery image from Chrome OS by browsing to chrome://imageburner or follow instructions for other OS on the Chrome OS help center site.
You can build and run Chromium OS on your Asus Chromebox (versions R32 and later). Follow the quick start guide to setup a build environment. The board name for the Asus Chromebox is 'panther'. Build an image and write it to a USB stick or SD card.
To boot your image you will first need to enable booting developer signed images from USB (or SD card). Switch your machine to Developer mode and get to a shell by either via VT2 (Ctrl+Alt+F2) and logging in as root or by logging in as a user (or guest mode), starting a 'crosh' shell with Ctrl+Alt+t, and typing 'shell'. Now run 'sudo crossystem dev_boot_usb=1' and reboot 'sudo reboot'.
Plug your USB stick or SD card in and on the scary 'OS Verification is OFF' screen hit Ctrl+u to boot from external media. If all goes well you should see a 'Chromium OS' logo screen. If you want to install your build to the SSD, open a shell and type 'sudo /usr/sbin/chromeos-install'. Note: This will replace EVERYTHING on your SSD. Use a recovery image if you want to get back to a stock Chrome OS build.
Have fun!

On the partitioning page, pick the LVM option, so you can expand the root disk easily later.
After selecting partitioning layout (I chose automatic), you may be prompted to continue in UEFI mode. Do this, continue in UEFI mode.
Now, you'll probably be stuck in EFI mode. Also, my keyboard (an Apple USB keyboard) wasn't working, so I had to go find another. If you're at the EFI promot, type 'exit' to return to the UEFI settings menu, then select Boot Maintenance Manager. From there, select Boot From File.
I then picked the first option and navigated through the prompts till I found the

file. Choose that and Ubuntu will boot.Once you're into ubuntu, you can copy the

Extend root partition to the SDCard
Note: doing this means the computer won't boot without the SDCard
Plug in the SDCard
Use

Now extend the disk with:
Done. Don't try to boot your computer without the SDCard plugged in. It won't work :)
