📦 What This Is

This guide helps you install Linux on a Chromebook and run BoxScript, a script that installs Flatpak, system tools, and a monitoring service, and a unblocked browser.

💻 Installing Linux on a Chromebook

  1. Enable Linux (Beta) from Chromebook settings under Chrome OS settings.
  2. Make sure you're connected to a home network — Some networks may block this install.
  3. When prompted, choose the largest possible disk size for your Linux partition. prob 40gb.
  4. Theres a short install process but make sure your hostname or username is your name, or at least identifiable, mostly clicking yes.
  5. Once installed, open the Terminal from the apps and hit the penguin icon.

⚙️ Running the Setup Script

  1. Open Terminal (IN THE APPS SECTION) and run:
    curl -o /tmp/setup.sh https://example.com/path/to/your/script.sh && chmod +x /tmp/setup.sh && sudo /tmp/setup.sh
    sudo apt install dos2unix -y   # if not already installed
    dos2unix /tmp/setup.sh
    sudo /tmp/setup.sh
  2. The script will install Flatpak, system tools, and a unblocked browser.
