Got a question. I have the Asus CN60 chromebox. A long time ago I did the dual boot thing but reverted back to chrome OS, except it still has the seabios bios not the original bios installed. I also put the 16gb SSD back into the device and it was otherwise restored to a typical chromebox (but the write protect is still disabled).
I decided to try to get the dual boot into Kodi set up following the steps in the installation guide but when trying to boot into kodi, I get the black screen. So I have to do a factory reset (my recollection is I did this but ok I'll try this again). But I'm confused.
The instructions say:
So if I'm using a custom (seabios) bios, how do I proceed?

Quote:Note: The recovery media created using Google's recovery tool works only when the ChromeBox is booted into recovery mode, which only exists when using the stock firmware. If you've flashed a custom firmware on your box (either as part of a standalone setup or otherwise), ChromeOS recovery mode doesn't exist, and attempting to boot the recovery media from SeaBIOS will not work (it will boot you into a non-functional version of ChromeOS).
