This is an old revision of the document!
The procedure still seems a little unclear but some variation of:
Go into developer mode
- to get into root: <ctrl><alt><right-arrow>
- login as root. Default password is test0000
Set friendly bios flags:
- <ctrl><alt>t then type shell
This step will alow the quick boot of Seabios and entering the Linux distro without pressing any key shortcut
We will set these flags:
GBB_FLAG_DEV_SCREEN_SHORT_DELAY 0×00000001 GBB_FLAG_FORCE_DEV_SWITCH_ON 0×00000008 GBB_FLAG_FORCE_DEV_BOOT_LEGACY 0×00000080 GBB_FLAG_DEFAULT_DEV_BOOT_LEGACY 0×00000400
with this command: # /usr/bin/set_gbb_flags.sh 0x489
or if that doesn't work # /usr/share/vboot/bin/set_gbb_flags.sh 0x489
Your flash should have been written now.
# crossystem dev_boot_usb=1 dev_boot_legacy=1
Not really needed? but just to make sure.
After installing Huge Green Bug's xubuntu 14.04
- disable right-clicking by clicking on right side of touchpad: add to ~/.xsessionrc: xinput –set-int-prop $ID “Button Right Click Enable” 8 0
- disable touch to tap: add to ~/.xsessionrc: xinput –set-int-prop $ID “Tap Enable” 8 0
- note that both of the above commands assume that ID has already been set as already appears in .xsessionrc: ID=`xinput | grep cyapa | cut -f 2 | sed -e 's/id=//'`
Installing Gallium OS 3.1 on C720

shell
thensudo -s
/usr/share/vboot/bin/set_gbb_flags.sh 0x489
- burn Gallium OS onto flash drive using Etcher (ubootin didn't work)
- boot from flash drive. Install
