Chromebook CB315 3H Sound not working on Tiny11

t3_1grs03e

I've got an Acer CB5-571 for £7

It's 4GB so pretty useless for doze and past end of support/updates but a reasonable gpu and screen so thinking of a modified bios and xubuntu or lubuntu.

Main things really are current security updates for a supported browser which xubuntu should provide, ssh, text editor vi, ide, vmware remote console support like a portable admin node etc and a carryable for short trips where I don't want to take an expensive W11 work laptop or a Macbook pro retina/air. Not sure if it'll run osx although my macbook with 4gb does run the latest osx ok for basic stuff with oclp.

I've done similar with a HP about 4 years ago when it went past eol and is now dual boot off the internal sata ssd and a sd card.

Any tips/ versions to go for or avoid ? Should it be left with whatever bios it's got or updated to latest chromeos/bios prior to hacking ? Is there anything better that seabios nowadays ? Anything to avoid bricking bios and specific builds it'll need ? Would it be easier/safest to put in a larger 64gb/128gb ssd in first and do a factory recovery restore from an image to give a rollback ability with original ssd?

Any advice/help appreciated.

So this all started when I wanted and still do to disable firmware WP on my Acer Chromebook Spin 512 (R851TN) Sparky360, I have read the Mr Chrome Box Website to try to disable WP, i disabled the battery and plugged in my charger (Not original charger, i got a replacement because my old one broke) and when ever i would start the chromebook it would start then shut off and repeat, so I going to try to buy a SuzyQ cable and try to use ccd, the only problem is I don't know how to start or do ccd (Close Case Debugging)

Removing Rootfs on Chrome os dev mode using VT-2, Post it here just to easly find the command again!

Looking to replace my chrome OS with Linux Mint but I cant boot off of a USB. The Chrome bios just say that "The device you inserted does not contain chrome os"

I could complete succesfully flashed the UEFI Firmware on the Acer Chromebook Spin 13. I removed the battery to disable the protection, and already installed Windows 11. 

If I boot without the baterry installed it turn on and boot, but if I try to boot with the battery connected it doesnt turn on... and the charge LED just blink slow orange. Do I need to do something else?

CCD open seems to not do anything?

I have a Chromebook Pixel purchased which was already configured to boot Linux (although I have set my own devices up in the past so am familiar with the process). As of yesterday it now hangs at the white rabbit screen, although unlike others with this issue there is no "Press ESC..." text at the bottom of the screen. 

Waiting does nothing, pressing ESC or Ctrl Refresh does nothing, insisting a bootable USB does nothing. Is this like to be a dead eMMC preventing the POST process completing?

Thanks.

Turning an $8 Chromebox 3 Into a Surprisingly Decent Mini PC!

Ran Mr. Chromebox’s procedure and added a handful of upgrades to squeeze as much performance as possible out of this thing. I didn’t go into much detail on the UEFI process just because of the room for error and differences in chromeOS machines.
