Linux on a Chromebook, my favorite way

Video Description

Yes, there are many ways to install Linux on a Chromebook. In my humble opinion, this is the best way. Maybe you'll like it! In today's thrilling episode of Veronica Explains, I'll introduce you to the Chrultrabook project, and the process of installing a more vanilla Coreboot on Chromebooks, overwriting the stock firmware, and to paraphrase the Coreboot docs, take the training wheels off of your Chromebook. Then we'll install lots of Linuxes and a few other things! Veronica Explains wouldn't be possible without your support.
