Install scripts to dual boot ChromeOS and Linux

Collection of scripts, based on MattDevo scripts available here: https://github.com/MattDevo/scripts

MattDevo scripts were here adapted to make a dual boot system with linux and chromeos and they are tested to work on Samsung Chromebook 2 Baytrail - Winky

First you need your Chromebook in developer mode and a micro sdcard (class 10 required) to boot linux from.

Then just run this script and choose options available to have a fully dual boot system, running ChromeOS when you choose CTRL+D (developer mode) or an Linux System when you choose CTRL+L running from your sdcard.

  How to begin

This script is under development (ALPHA RELEASE) and not fully tested, please use it with caution.

  1. Enable Developer Mode (ESC+F3(Refresh)+Power).

  2. Load ChromeOS by pressing CTRL+D at the white "OS verification is OFF" screen

  3. Configure your Wi-Fi network, if necessary

  4. Switch to Virtual Terminal (VT) 2 by pressing CTRL+ALT+F2(top row right arrow)

  5. Log in as user chronos (no password) to enter chronos@localhost shell

  6. Insert a blank SDCARD in the slot

  7. Run: cd ~; curl -L -O https://goo.gl/EPBx2R; sudo bash EPBx2R 1

  8. Follow on-screen instructions to install GalliumOS on your Chromebook or update Legacy BIOS (SeaBIOS)

  What happens behind the scenes

  1. firmware will be updated and a new legacy boot payload (RW_LEGACY) will be flashed on your machine. There will be always risks on this procedure, so be aware of them. There is no need to remove write-protect screw to run this. Firmware comes from MattDevo scripts.

  2. chrx will be executed afterwords

  3. GalliumOS will be installed on your sdcard

  Supported Devices

Only Samsung Chromebooks 2 Baytrail - WINKY
