I have tried multiple times to install SeaBIOS to an Acer Chromebook 11 c720p-2600. I have also failed multiple times. Can anyone tell me how to install SeaBIOS to the Chromebook? I want Ubuntu on my Chromebook, and I do not want to install custom firmware that is not known (such as the one from Mr.Chromebox.tech, so please do not suggest it. I have screwed up a fair number of Chromebooks with his custom firmware, so I am sorry if that is what you were planning to do.)

  • Have you tried anything on your own that you might wanna show us? – Sachin Yadav Oct 11 '19 at 20:24

    I just edited my question, to show you what I have tried. Mr.Chromebox.tech only works for some Chromebooks, and the Acers that I have used broke because of it, unfortunately. – Logan Mar 11 '20 at 16:27

    It is not. I was intending to use SaeBIOS to install Ubuntu, if possible, however. – Logan Mar 11 '20 at 18:08

The SeaBIOS is an open source firmware that is used primarily in virtual machines such as with tools like QEMU. It is not a BIOS replacement for the firmware for your machine.
