Stuck to ChromeOS - Screen #999

Closed Konarer closed 3 years ago

Konarer commented 3 years ago

Hi all, I am new to all of this (linux, ChomeOS, github, ... all .....), so sorry if I am doing something wrong in this channel.

I am able to install everything out of linux as it should be and i get within Linux (Mint) that ChromeOS is installed. When rebooting the system, Brunch starts does some things and then ChromeOS starts. But then I get stuck at this screen: chromeOS

I am trying to isntall ChromeOS for my family on a HP EliteBook 8770w. Specs: Intel Core-i5 3360M 8GB RAM Chip: Mobile Intel® QM77 Express

I tried several images (ramus, samus, octopus, coral, ....) and different release of brunch (86, 87, 88, 89) with the coresponding images. With all of em I get stuck to the ChromeOS screen.

Any suggestions or ideas what I can do to fix this? Many thanks in advanced.

Regards Joe

Which generation of Intel CPU is this?

Sayor0630 commented 3 years ago

If your CPU generation is equal to or lower than the 3rd generation Intel i5 CPU, then you should and must use SAMUS recovery image. Otherwise, it won't work properly.

Sayor0630 commented 3 years ago

Use this image. Download by clicking this link. See if it works this time. https://dl.google.com/dl/edgedl/chromeos/recovery/chromeos_13729.56.0_samus_recovery_stable-channel_mp-v3.bin.zip

Yes, it is 3. Genernation. I used Samus first and it didnt work so i tried all the rest with the same result.

You can try changing brach karnel version to karnel 4.19

Konarer commented 3 years ago

I did this within the grub.cfg and I am not sure if I made it correctly... grub cfg

I dont see a change in while booting. Can I see during brunch-logo, which kernel is used?

Sayor0630 commented 3 years ago

By defaut, branch use Karnel 5.4

Yes, this is correct.

Sayor0630 commented 3 years ago

But, again I am saying replace "/kernel" on the grub configuration linux line with "/kernel-4.19

Konarer commented 3 years ago

I did, the ebug showed also that it started with kernel-4.19 but it didnt help. Still suck on Chrome Screen

I guess your laptop has a dual gpu, if so the best solution would be to disable the dual gpu in the bios but you can also try adding "module_blacklist=nouveau" on the kernel command line.

Sayor0630 commented 3 years ago

Do you have dual GPU?

Sayor0630 commented 3 years ago

You can use this command. See if it works.

Sayor0630 commented 3 years ago

Do you have all of these?

Konarer commented 3 years ago

Hi guys, thanks for all your help. But looks like, i killed the patient.

I tried to update BIOS to see, if I would be able to disable the videocard in a newer bios version. The first boot was without problems and the bios update too, but since today i am not able to boot the computer anymore.

I tried fb- commands and module_blacklist=amdgpu and it didnt help.

The command "module_blacklist=nouveau" is new to me, but since the computer is broken now, I won't be able to test this :/. All hp bios recovery options tried and none did help. Screen stays black.

Sad but no problem at all. I will find a new patient soon ;). Thanks for all help.

You should again flash your BIOS.

Sayor0630 commented 3 years ago

Download your BIOS from your laptop manufacturer's website. Then use a Pendrive to flash it.

Sayor0630 commented 3 years ago

If it doesn't work, then format the drive of ChromeOS using windows or Linux bootable pendrive
