ok today i took the hard drive out of a chromebook and installed a formatted drive. i have the mint on a stick in the usb on the chromebook and when i started the chromebook and got a note that the chrome os is missing. so do i have to put the old drive back into this chromebook? i was under the impression that i put the stick in the pc and booted it and that the linux would start to install automatically if not then what is the procedure? or will this not fit on the chromebooks? if i can get it onto a chromebook that has a 16gb ssd drive then i will get a 128gb drive and reinstall it so i then have room for docs and files and maybe some photos.
but if it i can't get it onto this chromebook than i may just buy a pc off ebay with it installed already. but because i have 4 chromebooks now i figure i can play around with one. thanks bp
