Chromebook Pixel is Linux-friendly
WiFi-only versions of the Chromebook Pixel have begun to be shipped. And the good news is that you can install Linux on them. Kernel patches been submitted for the hardware and now Bill Richardson of Google has also specified exactly how to load Linux Mint onto the devices. He has said that part of the Chrome OS BIOS is read-only, so only new hardware will be able to support any changes to it.
As a result of this Pixel, can only support user-provided custom boot loaders because of an unverified BIOS slot. However the Mint cannot be compatible with the laptop’s touchscreen and track pad because it is based on the standard kernel. Those who are willing to explore new territory can find step by step instructions on the internet.
