I've got something called ChromeOS-Zero running on a USB Flash drive.
I want to install it to my netbook's 8gb SSD. How do I do this? Can I dd it from the ChromeOS Live environment?
I can't seem to find any guide on how to do this; they're all just running off a flash drive.

Yes, you can, but I'm not sure if I recommend it.

Anyway, just simply use your SSD drive instead - sdb or whatever.

It's OK a script is included:

/usr/sbin/chromeos-install
or similar

Is Chrome the only distro you want on your netbook?. If not I found ChromeOS very easy to set up o Virtual Box.

I want only ChromeOS on my netbook.
If I were to run it in a virtual machine (on my netbook) that would defeat the point! I might as well just use Chrome (browser)
