Re: Chromium OS / Fedora / cros-termina ??

David:

"a real computer running Chrome OS"

This could be an existential crisis for Linux|

Dose this imply that our Fedora Systems aren't real?

Would it not be easier to just run one of a synthetic

Fedora, or CentOS release directly?

This is a follow-up, about my post a few days ago that I had purchased

a real computer running Chrome OS.     It is actually running Chromium OS.

My goal is to someday get Fedora running in a virtual window on my ACER

24 Chromebase computer.

The Linux Beta feature that is so easily activated is apparently something

called "cros-termina."

cros-termina - Version: 13099.48.0 is my current version, which I think has an

available update.

I do not yet have any idea how to add Fedora either to replace Debian or to in some

sort of other option.

I think most users would not want to run several distros, as the virtual machine is

so slow and so small.

To add to my confusion, I have almost zero experience with virtual computing - maybe

none, unless you count briefly looking at a new iso of a distro in Gnome Boxes.

For anyone interested Chromium OS has 14 visible components.    You can view the names

of those components on your Chromium device, by typing, "chrome://components."

Some of mine are:  ME Preload, Legacy TLS Deprecation Configuration, Adobe Flash Player, 

                  Intervention Policy Database  [ email me if you want the others ]

I got into this accidentally, and have not followed previous internet news stories about this

topic, nor yet seen any videos on YouTube.

But I am super duper impressed so far.    I hope my future emails to you will be coming

from the Linux-virtual-machine on this device and hopefully eventually with Fedora.
