Chromebooks are issued to kids at school, but they are limited. Since the kids were familiar with Chromebooks already, Derek's school bought them some used Chromebooks as simple devices they could browse the web with and watch videos. They were relatively inexpensive to purchase used, so it was an attractive option. Unfortunately, however, Derek and his team discovered that Chrome OS on these devices was out of support. This was untenable, and thus made these devices "disposable appliances." Derek's wife asked if he could put Linux on these since she had seen him do that with laptops in the past. The proposal was to install Linux and completely remove ChromeOS. This talk will outline the steps necessary to achieve that goal. (Involve kids for fun learning experience.)
