Shoutout to my teacher who gave me this chromebook for absolutely free.

Donating some money not only helps me make video ideas and improve my content, but I also want to use the money to support others who need it.

Yes, I make my own music. This is because I don't have the money to use the epidemic sound library, which I really want to use.

I've never enjoyed being sworn at so much as in this video - thanks for teaching me something f'n new

If a laptop defaults to the internal screen during boot, it can usually be forced to use the external display by booting with the lid closed. Of course one has to use an external mouse and keyboard in such case.
Dudee I love this!

was looking to do just this, thanks. now, am a total noob on linux, can you just install one from a usb like a reg OS install? or do you need to go step by step-wont ask for scripts!!- via terminal?
Awesome video! Maybe you should make a vid of installing my Linux distro on that chromebook or maybe even crazier hardware. (It's called Oreon Linux)

Just did this to a free chromebook a friend gave me. Honestly they arent bad computers. Chrome OS just sucks so much. With ubuntu (I know i know, but i like it) it runs surprisingly well.

Hey, I also got a free Chromebook, trying to install Linux on it, and I am also from Illinois.
How does one acquire free laptops? You could setup a Proxmox cluster on these.

I have a Intel x86 Chromebook with 8GB RAM, can you tell what would happen if you try to boot a Windows VHD with Ventoy? Would it boot?

While it's possible, not in his case. He installed coreboot without using a flashing board, meaning that it can exclusively boot linux, no windows. In theory though, it's possible if you flash it using that board.

Because Chromebooks are already very limited on resources ram/cpu etc, Windows would likely be very painful to use on it. The point here being Linux would at least be a better choice than ChromeOS which is not only less flexible than Linux but older Chromebox loose support for ChromeOS pretty quickly. If you insist on using Windows you are just better off buying a lower end laptop that comes with it. Lastly installing Windows is not as straight forward to install on Chromebook hardware and can be trickier to get booting if at all. I say this as mainly a Windows user, even I would not bother.
