What we'd most prefer is to get this patch series into Chrome OS, so we have qemu as part of a "real" build.įWIW, this particular instance of qemu was built on arch Linux, lost, sadly, when my Air was stolen. The setup sounds a bit kludgy but works well for me nevertheless, we welcome improvements. Access to devices, where needed, is provided via bind-mounts. It's a bit hard to get Qemu built in the Chrome OS build system at present, so I've got a directory containing Qemu, its libraries and BIOS files, and scripts to chroot to that directory and run Qemu. I have booted both Windows and different versions of Linux and the 9front version of Plan 9.

CHROMIUM OS VIRTUALBOX SOFTWARE

I've replaced my Macbook Air with a Chromebook, and run the standard Chrome OS software on VT01, and virtual machines on VT02. The Chromebooks with Intel processors are fast.

4 Checking VMX Support on Unofficial Hardware.

But, if like me, your idea of a good time is playing with operating systems, you're ready to go now. This is, one more time with feeling, a beta. You should know that you're not going to see the kind of speed you're used to with the Chrome Web browser. So, ready to give it a try? Well be aware that it's going to be a bumpy ride at time and that Chrome OS' interface is essentially the same as the Chrome Web browser. You can run it on a laptop or desktop with a conventional hard drive, but in my own experience it clearly does better with SSDs. Chrome OS will use local storage-unlike what some people seem to think-and it's optimized for SSDs. If I were you, and wanted to play with Chrome OS, I'd used a more up-to-date low-end notebook. Still, Chrome OS works better on it than it does on a VM. For Chrome OS, this early model Ubuntu Linux netbook, with its 1.6Ghz single-core Intel Atom 270 Diamondville with a gigabyte of RAM and am 8GB solid state drive (SSD) and Diamondville's built-in 945GSE graphics is underpowered.

I also use the USB versions on my Dell Mini 9. Chrome OS looks just like the Chrome Web Browser. But, for running Chrome as a VM, you can forget about the GMA.

It has 4GBs of RAM, a 500GB Serial ATA (SATA) drive, and an Integrated Intel 3100 GMA (Graphics Media Accelerator). These are powered by a 2.2-GHz Intel Pentium E2200 dual-core processor with an 800-MHz front-side bus. Personally, I run Chrome OS hard drive images on VirtualBox on one of my Dell Inspiron 530S test boxes. Welcome to life at programming's cutting edge. In addition, some of them will indeed prove to be broken. These are beta programs with all the foibles that come with betas. These builds are, in my experience, safe. These should always work (assuming the build wasn't broken at the time they were built), but you'll find they're quite slow, because there's no graphical acceleration." If these don't boot on your device then go ahead and try the VirtualBox or VMware image. For the best experience, it's recommended you use the USB images. You can get images in either USB, VirtualBox or VMware format.

These images, but I'll let Hexxen explain what they're up to: "Each day at around 6PM GMT the latest code is downloaded automatically and compiled into images you can try out, containing the latest changes. If you're not an experienced programmer with access to a 64-bit Linux system, Ubuntu 10.04 Long Term Support (LTS) version for choice, you don't want to go this route though.įor people who don't program in C for a living, the smart thing to do is to download a Chrome OS virtual machine (VM) or USB stick live image from Hexxen. The real Chrome OS, which is indeed based on Linux flavored by Ubuntu, is available as source code, along with build instructions, at the Chromium OS Developer Guide. I haven't tried it, but it's not the Chrome OS that you're looking for. It's a Linux distribution that uses Chrome OS. Instead, you're most likely to find links that will eventually take you to Chrome OS Linux.

CHROMIUM OS VIRTUALBOX HOW TO

Here's how to do it.įirst, if you just try looking for "Chrome OS download" on Google, ironically, you're going to have trouble finding it. Unfortunately, it's not as easy as you might think. The commercial Chromebooks are almost here, but if you want to try Chrome OS sooner than that you can do it.
