At LAST - a Chrometoy has been converted into a REAL computer!
Thanks, and welcome.

I'd just like to add my voice to the requests to see this - very tempted to get a Chromebook if putting LL on it was simple.
And Happy New Year everyone!

Welcome to the Linux Lite community, Mike! I used to use a Chromebook myself, but I have since sold it on eBay. An Acer C710 Chromebook, the previous model to the one you own. That particular Chromebook is also VERY easy to install alternative OS' on, something that was near impossible to do on other Chromebook models at that time (early 2013), due to the BIOS being locked.
Re: Hello from snowy Maine, USA - Mike - 01-13-2015
Agreed! I purposely got the c720p because I saw that is had SeaBIOS and wanted it for the cheap hardware. Linux Lite works beautifully on it with the 3.18 kernel.

Mike, any progress on the tutorial?
Re: Hello from snowy Maine, USA - Mike - 01-13-2015
Sorry, Jerry. I've been really busy lately which is why I got quiet for a bit on the forums. I'll put something together soon. I'm thinking it may be more of a comprehensive reference post than a tutorial now because I would just be reinventing the wheel. There are several excellent tutorials out there for Ubuntu based distros but I'll gather the best resources and provide some additional info based on my own experience with different methods.
