In my previous post, I outlined my ultimate goal to convert one of my 2 ASUS chromeboxes into a dedicated linux server. Unfortunately, the article today in Ars Technica (http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2014/03/review-asus-brings-chrome-os-to-mini-pcs-in-a-low-power-inexpensive-package/) puts a bit of a damper on that.
SeaBIOS seems to be the issue here, where one can get to the boot menu but is unable to initiate booting from a USB to install a new OS. Ars notes that the issue is likely related to SeaBIOS not properly supporting xHCl (see reference above). Regardless, this is a setback to my original plans.
Time to see how much I can do with just Crouton alone...
