Thanks Matt, so let me see if I get this right - I buy Chromebox, sign in and redeem special offers. Then I do device prep, take backup of existing chromeos (even though it won't run later), install Coreboot, and then the entire SSD is devoted to OpenElec/Linux, and for dual booting I use a ChromiumOS usb.
What are the disadvantages to not installing Coreboot and continue to dualboot ChromeOS and OpenElec off the SSD? Besides a slower boot time. Or put another way, are there any disadvantages to using Chromium vs Chrome? As you can tell I'd also like to use the box as a computer.
