Chromium OS first try

I've just tried the Chromium OS for the first time. Getting started with that OS is quite fast and easy.


1. First, download the pre-built image from http://chromeos.hexxeh.net/ (You can choose the VMWare, VirtualBox, or USB live image). In my case, I load the image to my USB following the instructions in the link above:

1
Extract the IMG file from the downloaded archive
2
At the shell, run the following (where sdX is your USB stick and ChromeOS.img is the path to the IMG file you extracted):
dd if=ChromeOS.img of=/dev/sdX bs=4M

2. Boot from the newly created Chromium OS USB stick and Enjoy the beauty












3. Install some development tools: http://joemarini.blogspot.com/2013/11/tools-for-developing-on-chromeos.html

4. ChromeOS crosh commandlinehttp://www.howtogeek.com/170648/10-commands-included-in-chrome-oss-hidden-crosh-shell/
