It looks like ChromiumOS is pretty unusable. I've tried three different USB sticks and two different "builds". The user interface is sluggish and mouse movement is very jumpy even with the lowest speed in "settings". About the only thing that seemed to work was adjusting the display size for overscan compensation.
Nothing else I've tried seems to actually work, Angry Birds (I did run this on the ChromeOS) locks up at "installing 60%". Pandora installs but says I need Flash, but Adobe's flash page says I have the latest version. I tried iHeartRadio and couldn't scroll down to acknowledge the "terms and conditions" to create and account.
Utterly useless as far as I can tell
In fact two of the three sticks now give a kernel panic when I try to boot them
Other than getting one to boot to Ctrl-Alt-F2 for the login to rerun your script I'd say forget about ChromiumOS on the Chromebox.
