'''IMPORTANT''': Development on GalliumOS has been discontinued, and for most users, GalliumOS is not the best option for running Linux due to lack of hardware support or a kernel that's out of date and lacking important security fixes.

For most (EOL) Chromebooks, the recommended path forward is to:

* put the device into Developer Mode
* disable firmware write protection
* flash MrChromebox's UEFI Full ROM firmware
* install ChromeOS Flex, Linux, etc

See https://mrchromebox.tech and the [https://reddit.com/r/chrultrabook chrultrabook subreddit] for more info
