Acer Chromebook 15

[Michael Hennebry]

Is it possible to put fedora on an Acer Chromebook 15?
I've been trying to no avail.
Google has shown me lots of sets of directions for booting from USB,
none of which have worked.
I've gotten it to the point that it claims OS checking is off,
but then it goes to chrome.
Grrr.
Should I just throw out the chromebook?

I would like to know the answer to this too.

You could donate it to a local school that provides chromebooks to
students who can't do in-person learning due to COVIDS-19,
measles, etc.
