Google does not release its OS partner beyond notebooks from SAMSUNG, and therefore not so easy to try this OS on your PC. But probably. We wrote about the way to do it Parallels for Mac users. For PC users still easier.
Iron
To implement written, you will need the USB-flash drive of at least 4GB.
Google Chromium project has page, Which lists compatible with Chrome OS iron. But do not despair if your piece of iron is not there. This OS is based on Linux, but because somehow it will work for sure - can see. The most likely problem with the wi-fi adapters, they do not run most of the rest.
We install the operating system on a USB flash drive
Google does not provide official assembly Chrome OS, and therefore use one of the informal - Vanilla and Lime. Vanilla - the most recent assembly, and start better with it. If you are serious with zhelezyachnye compatibility issues, then put Lime - she expanded driver support devices (drivers included wi-fi chipsets Broadcom, Ralink and Realtek, and is supported by graphics nVidia and AMD). Swing here:
Chromium OS Lime or Chromium OS Vanilla. Distribution takes 300MB.Next, open the downloaded ZIP-file and save it in a separate folder IMG-file.
Download Windows Image Writer and run the EXE-Schnick.
Insert the flash drive into the computer and write using the Windows Image Writer resulting IMG file on it.
Obviously, all the information on the flash drive will be destroyed, be careful.
Run Chrome OS!
Restart the computer and enter the BIOS (by pressing the DEL or F2, read what is written on the screen at boot time). Install USB download primary source. Now the download will be first installed on a flash drive Chrome OS. Download will be much slower than the original Chrome Book, that whatever the OS installed on the SSD-drive, and then we just USB.
Now you'll know exactly what you need in the Chrome OS laptop from Google / SAMSUNG or not.
