How to put a GNU/Linux installation on your Chromebook

DISCLAIMER: This could all quite plausibly brick your Chromebook, and I take no responsibility for any damage you might inflict on it or yourself. Follow along at your own risk.

Most Chromebooks can run some flavour of GNU/Linux using the Chrubuntu method, running off the kernel that comes with ChromeOS. I found, however, that the ChromeOS kernel didn’t play well with recent X.org versions, and would refuse to recover from suspend, and not deal very well at all with having an external screen attached to it.

I also wanted to replace ChromeOS entirely with Arch on my Chromebook, because only 16 gigabytes of eMMC isn’t very convenient for dual booting. To accomplish this, I needed an external installation medium.

First of all, you’ll need to get your Chromebook into developer mode if you haven’t already. This is model specific, although for most recent models holding the Escape and Reload keys while booting should do the trick. If not, ask Google.

PdfLatex is a tool that converts Latex sources into PDF. This is specifically very important for researchers, as they use it to publish their findings. It could be installed very easily using Linux terminal, though this seems an annoying task on Windows. Installation commands are given below.

• Install the TexLive base

sudo apt-get install texlive-latex-base

• Also install the recommended and extra fonts to avoid running into the error [1], when trying to use pdflatex on latex files with more fonts.

Working with ansible-vault

---

I've been using a lot of Ansible lately and while almost everything has been great, finding a clean way to implement ansible-vault wasn't immediately apparent.

What I decided on was the following: put your secret information into a vars file, reference that vars file from your task, and encrypt the whole vars file using ansible-vault encrypt.

Let's use an example: You're writing an Ansible role and want to encrypt the spoiler for the movie Aliens.
