Codestarter installer for Ubuntu on Chromebooks

This script will install everything necessary to transform an Acer C720 into a Codestarter laptop. Primarily this involves partitioning the built-in SSD and installing Ubuntu along with various patches and Codestarter customizations.

Upon completion, you will be able to boot into both ChromeOS (CTRL-D) or Ubuntu (CTRL-L) from the developer mode boot screen.

For more back story on why we chose the Acer C720 and some of the Codestarter customizations, see our blog post at http://bit.ly/X24d9r.

Supported device(s)

  • Acer C720 Chromebook

Prerequisites

  • A Chromebook listed in the supported device(s) section
  • A recovery image for your Chromebook in case something goes wrong. In order to achieve that, go to chrome://imageburner, on your Chromebook, and follow the instructions
  • Chromebook in developer mode
  • An external media of at least 1GB (USB Flash drive or SD Card)
  • Patience

Usage

ATTENTION: This will wipe everything on your device

  1. Enable developer mode.
  2. Download the latest version of this installer and extract it to a removable media
  3. Boot into ChromeOS, connect to a wireless network and log in as guest
  4. Open a shell (CTRL + ALT + t) and type shell
  5. From the shell go to the location of the script on the removable media cd /media/removable/ and press [TAB] [TAB] on your keyboard to show and auto-complete your removable media path automatically
  6. Run the script with sudo bash main.sh
  7. On the first run you will be asked how much storage space you want to dedicate to Ubuntu. We suggest choosing the default.
  8. After the first run, your system will reboot to complete the initial formatting, then you will need to re-run the script (steps 3-6) to complete the installation process
  9. Follow the prompt to complete the installation
  10. After the installation is completed and the Chromebook has rebooted, press CTRL+L to boot into Ubuntu
  11. On first boot you will be asked to complete your system configuration (Language, Time zone, Computer name) and create a user account

Codestarter installer for Ubuntu on Chromebooks

This script will install everything necessary to transform an Acer C720 into a Codestarter laptop. Primarily this involves partitioning the built-in SSD and installing Ubuntu along with various patches and Codestarter customizations.

Upon completion, you will be able to boot into both ChromeOS (CTRL-D) or Ubuntu (CTRL-L) from the developer mode boot screen.

For more back story on why we chose the Acer C720 and some of the Codestarter customizations, see our blog post at http://bit.ly/X24d9r.

Supported device(s)

  • Acer C720 Chromebook

Prerequisites

  • A Chromebook listed in the supported device(s) section
  • A recovery image for your Chromebook in case something goes wrong. In order to achieve that, go to chrome://imageburner, on your Chromebook, and follow the instructions
  • Chromebook in developer mode
  • An external media of at least 1GB (USB Flash drive or SD Card)
  • Patience

Usage

ATTENTION: This will wipe everything on your device

  1. Enable developer mode.
  2. Download the latest version of this installer and extract it to a removable media
  3. Boot into ChromeOS, connect to a wireless network and log in as guest
  4. Open a shell (CTRL + ALT + t) and type shell
  5. From the shell go to the location of the script on the removable media cd /media/removable/ and press [TAB] [TAB] on your keyboard to show and auto-complete your removable media path automatically
  6. Run the script with sudo bash main.sh
  7. On the first run you will be asked how much storage space you want to dedicate to Ubuntu. We suggest choosing the default.
  8. After the first run, your system will reboot to complete the initial formatting, then you will need to re-run the script (steps 3-6) to complete the installation process
  9. Follow the prompt to complete the installation
  10. After the installation is completed and the Chromebook has rebooted, press CTRL+L to boot into Ubuntu
  11. On first boot you will be asked to complete your system configuration (Language, Time zone, Computer name) and create a user account
