most interestingly, it worked the other way around. i had a keyboard without numeric, a wireless logitech living room keyboard, and with that one it did not work.
however with an usb keyboard, and pressing enter on numpad, it accepted the command...

Trying to set up an HP Chromebox today. Using E-Z Setup and trying to install custom coreboot Firmware (menu 5), answer all the questions, screen says "Downloading coreboot Firmware" for a short period of time (maybe 30 seconds) and then the screen says "coreboot firmware download checksum fail: download corrupted, cannot flash."
I have tried four times with the same result, using both web URL's. Any suggestions as to where I have gone wrong? I have previously set up two ASUS Chormeboxes and both worked without any problem.

Just like ex-r-wagon, I'm setting up a chromebox via E-Z Setup, and I get "coreboot firmware download checksum fail; download corrupted, cannot flash," when using menu option 5.
Thoughts?

I have a problem with my come box. I have run the script and successfully updated the firmware I am running standalone and when given the option I said yes to headless install. After I rebooted none of my USB ports worked. I tried three different keyboards and a cd ROM drive. nothing. any ideas?
Thanks.

The two are not related in the least. Also, "none worked" isn't a very useful description of the problem you are having

Matt, I now have my Chromeboxes and am trying to work out if I want to dual boot or go single boot to OE or perhaps kodibuntu.
I think the only reason I'd want ChromeOS would be for Netflix. However in playing with ChromeOS I can't actually see an app, which I thought would be installable. So is netflix on ChromeOS actually done through the Chrome Browser, or is there a separate app?
