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 just took mine apart to test if I could install Linux via battery disconnect. No nvme.

Perhaps Debian is the way to go.

Should I take this ASUS instead? Thanks.
how is this Chromebook compared to say Dell Latitude 7280?
During BF days I bought 2 Dell Latitude 7280 (refurbished by Dell, but look almost new, must be renewed), each for around $100 before tax (after cashback from TCB)!
So, performance-wise, are these Chromebooks better than mid-low range windows laptops like Dell Latitude 7280?
The laptop specs are as you can see in the attached images.
If this Chromebooks is really better than the Dell Lat 7280 I have recently bought, I can probably buy one of these as well, just not sure if it's really worth it !
Its a shame because this seems like a nice machine.
(anyone know the logic behind Google's AUE. Maybe because this processor is somewhat unique? I have seen cheaper chromebooks which have longer AUE).
I recently bought a ThinkPad C13 Yoga Chromebook, which has a AMD Athlon Gold 3150C (launched in Sep 2020). The AUE is Jun 2028.
