This article provides the latest chromeos image. I have tried it. It is very fast and is being downloaded. I will try it with a USB flash drive immediately...
Do you still remember hexxeh, the British chromium OS developer? From chrome
The OS has been developing its customized chromium OS flow since it was released.
Zero ). Hexxeh has done another great thing recently. He imitated the chromium project to create a chromium
The operating system's nightly buildbot is a robot that automatically compiles the latest source code every day. So we can download the latest pure version of chromium OS from this page at any time, which is truly a good news for new + clean users!
At the top of this page is the latest compilation result. Click the USB flash drive icon on the Right To download it. Some precautions are as follows:
- These images cannot work in VMware and virtualbox for the moment. Chromium OS images must be specially processed after compilation to support the virtual machine environment.
- You need to use a specific tool to write this image to the USB flash drive. Linux and Mac users can use dd, windows users can use Win32 disk imager (refer to relevant operations in this article ).
- The package you downloaded contains a lot of files, but the most important is chromiumos_base_image.bin. Other image files include Developer Tools and Demo code.The author has just updated this and now downloads an IMG file, like!
- Windows users need a decompression tool that can process. GZ. For example, 7-zip. Linux/Mac users are stable.
- Hardware compatibility is still a problem, the chromium x86-generic image does not contain a lot of drivers, so you are still likely to encounter a cup without a WiFi NIC Driver. However, it seems that there are basically no problems with netbooks, and traditional laptops are hard to say.
- The efficiency of starting and running from the USB flash drive is acceptable, and the jamming phenomenon may occur from time to time. If you have a rich hard disk or even SSD, running chromium OS on the top will certainly be much better than a USB flash drive.
- When you try to log on, the time zone may be set incorrectly, which will cause the system time to be wrong and you will not be able to log on to your Google user. Solution: Click Browse without signing in, right-click the clock after entering the system, and select change time zone. You can log out of the system and log on with your own Google account.
- Of course, the current chromium OS is still in the early stage of testing, and some features, including the media player, cannot work normally-even if the media player can be used, you still cannot play MP3 and most video files, because it is chromium, not chrome, and a copyrighted decoder cannot be bundled in it.
