Hardware Compatibility
From GalliumOS Wiki
Most Haswell, Broadwell, and Ivy/Sandy Bridge Chromebooks and Chromeboxes are supported by GalliumOS. Since there are so many devices, we haven't tested them all. If you find issues that aren't listed, please submit a bug report: [1].
GalliumOS requires "Legacy Boot" capability in the firmware of your ChromeOS device. Some devices ship with stock firmware that includes Legacy Boot, and some devices require a firmware update to include it. Others (including all devices with ARM processors) will not work at all.
If your device is supported by John Lewis's firmware, [2], or chrx, most likely you will be able to run GalliumOS. However, please view the tables below to determine if your device has been tested and what issues there may be.
