Intel processors using the Haswell architecture are very popular in 2013/2014-era ChromeOS devices.

Factory firmware support for booting legacy OSes via SeaBIOS is common, but custom firmware is also available for all Haswell models as well -- see Firmware.

Model-Specific Notes

ASUS Chromebox, 2014 (PANTHER) / HP Chromebox, 2014 (ZAKO)

  • Factory legacy boot firmware bug prevents use of attached USB devices at boot, including keyboard
    • While installation is possible with factory firmware, it is less than ideal.
    • Custom firmware does not have bug; update RW_LEGACY. See Installing/Panther.
