01. Hold ESC-Refresh -- tap Power to boot to ChromeOS in Recovery Mode --
Press CTRL-D to enter Developer Mode and disable verification --- allow ChromeOS wipe ~5mins
02. Login to ChromeOS via google credz and establish WIFI connectivity with ur router. - shutdown Chromebook -- disconnect Power
03.Take apart bottom half and disconnect Battery - leave off and reconnect Power cable only to Chromebook-- boot into ChromeOS (This will disable "Write Protect" mode)
04.Launch Chrome Browser then press Ctrl-ALT-T to launch a Terminal
05. Type "Shell" to enter shell mode and paste the MrChromebox.tech script in there:
cd; curl -LO mrchromebox.tech/firmware-util.sh; sudo install -Dt /usr/local/bin -m 755 firmware-util.sh; sudo firmware-util.sh
06. select Option to install Full UEFI Firmware -- run through the prompts (because i can't remember them all) -- let it do its thing and reboot -- and you should get a coreboot "bunny" logo BIOS
07. Install Windows/Linux as any other x86 PC - through bootable ThumbDrive. - may need to find a Win11 TPM bypass method (with rufus)
08. shutdown and reinstall battery as before and your done.
Only things I dislike (but cannot complain about at the price) wifi chip is horrible. Reception is fine inside the house but as soon as I go into my backyard it refuses to connect. I can walk 3 houses down on my phone and other devices. Again can't complain for the price...
The trackpad feels a bit sensitive, could be a lot better, but not too big an issue.

I don't think you should purchase this with expectation you can convert this to Linux or Windows easily.
I picked this up in the 119 Best Buy thread, fantastic bargain. Hits all checklist items for me. For my use case (couch laptop), I would've been okay with a 13.3" form factor

The keys are also really hard to make out. I can't believe they found this acceptable but the back lights on or off the keys are very hard to make out. If you touch type and never look a the keys it'll probably bother you less, but anyone that looks at a keyboard will definitely have issues, and this was just from screen lighting on any brightness setting.
