If you follow the instructions it works perfectly.
Thanks for your killer script Matt.
OpenELEC on the Asus Chromebox is sweet...

it's perfectly usable for media center duties and web browsing, but like anything else it's relative.

actually, it's just as straightforward as installing any other OS in standalone mode. Run script, update firmware, boot with USB install media, install OS. Many of the required drivers need to be downloaded/installed separately, but that's true for a lot of other systems as well.
