The public debut of Google Chrome OS today has the press abuzz over the
potential of the new web-based operating system. And now that it’s open
sourced, you have the chance to try it out for yourself. Unfortunately,
most people aren’t ready to undertake the daunting task of actually
taking Google’s recently open-sourced code and turning that into a
bootable computer. So we’ve put together a step-by-step guide to doing
this, for free, in around 15 minutes (depending on how long it takes to
download the OS itself). No, this won’t get your computer booting
Chrome OS natively (and frankly, you probably wouldn’t want to yet
anyway). But it will get it up and running in a virtual machine using
the free software VirtualBox, which is available for Macs, PCs, and
Linux.

First, you need to get an image of Chrome OS, download it from links
bellow. When you'll download it, you’ll see it’s in a .BZ2 format.
You’ll need to extract it. Macs should be able to do this
automatically, but for Windows you may need a tool like WinRar.

Once that’s done, download a version of VirtualBox for whatever OS
you’re running on here and install it. After registering (or declining
to) you’ll be met with a screen like this. Click the button that says
“New” in the upper left hand corner. We’re going to be making a new
virtual machine.:



You’ll enter a wizard like this. Hit next.



Go ahead and title the OS whatever you’d like. For the operating
system, choose Linux, with Ubuntu as the version (other setups could
potentially work, but this is the only one we’ve gotten working).


Choose how much memory to allocate to this virtual machine. This will
be dependent on how much memory you have in your computer. The more,
the better, but if you choose too much your real computer will become
unstable/very slow.


Here’s the tricky part (fortunately it isn’t very tricky). You don’t
want to create a new hard disk, instead, you want to use an existing
hard disk. Don’t choose one from the drop down menu either — you’re
going to want to hit the folder icon just to the right of that to enter
the ‘virtual media manager’.



Hit the ‘Add’ button.


Now you have to find the Chrome OS image you downloaded earlier. This
is probably on your desktop or in your downloads folder. Once you’ve
found it, hit ‘Open’.



Hit ‘Select’ once you reach this window.


Almost there. Make sure ‘use existing hard disk’ is checked. Hit next.


Hit ‘Finish’.You’re done! Hit Start. Hopefully the screen will go
black, but only for a little while (this could be anywhere from 10
seconds to a minute or so, depending on how fast your computer is).


You’re in. Now time to explore. To be honest, everything looks quite
similar to Google’s Chrome browser, but there are a few key
differences. Note the battery life indicator and options menu in the
far upper right. Also try playing around with the ‘New Window’
functions — you’ll find that it’s difficult (if not impossible) to
navigate between multiple windows. And be wary of the Bookmarks
manager. As far as I can tell, there’s no easy way to get out of it —
you’ll have to manually create a new bookmark, which will kick you back
into the browser mode once you click it. Oh, and good luck finding the
’shut down’ button, because we sure can’t.
