Need another root manager that isn't SuperSU #12

The company Chainfire sold SuperSU to seem to have abandoned the project, which left all the links to the actual binary dead from their website, which I assume is the reason I ran the script here and failed to install su.

Chainfire retired from SuperSU over a year ago, this is not new information. I have been using this script to root my Chrombook since like Chrome OS v64. You just need to download SuperSU zip file from supersu.com and unzip it into the root of your Download folder and the nolirium script will run and install it correctly as it will look for the presence of the supersu files in your download folder before attempting to download it from the internet.

The link to a working SuperSU (and extraction instructions) can be seen here: https://github.com/nolirium/aroc/issues/23#issuecomment-486888568

If you still get (other) errors after placing the SuperSU contents in the correct location and trying to run the script, check the issue referenced just below that comment, for the problem I hit and its (probable) solution.

How about Magisk? I guess might not because of systemless method

Edit: If it can, you can keep 2 methods of rooting.
