Install Google Chrome from the web at ‘ ’.Īfter Chrome is installed, open a page to ‘ ’. NOTE: If you have a Windows system, perform the same steps, but don’t worry about VirtualBox. The USB Flash drive will be formatted, so do not use a drive that has data on it you want to keep. I set up Windows 11 VirtualBox Machine and added a USB flash drive as a USB device within VirtualBox. The process to do this is not supported by Google to perform on a Linux system, that is why a Windows system is required for this portion. This process requires the use of a Windows system (you should be able to use Windows from a VirtualBox system, you’ll need to have access to a USB flash drive). Getting a bootable installation USB flash drive is probably the most complicated part. NOTE: You have a choice to try or install Chrome OS Flex. If you have ever wanted to see what a Chromebook is like, then this will give you that chance of paying for a Chromebook. If you have a system that meets these requirements, or better than these, then try Chrome OS Flex.

The Flex OS requires a system with at least 4 GB of RAM, 16 GB of storage space and be bootable from a USB drive.

The Chrome OS Flex Operating System does not need to be installed on a Chromebook, but can be installed on a wide variety of systems if compatible. The newer Google Chrome OS Flex gives the user the ability to use Debian 11 (Bullseye).
